Hi! I've been using backuppc for ages (more than 3 years) on my home network, and it works just lovely,
However, after upgrading my server to latest ubuntu (11.04) the localhost backup fails. The error is "no ping response". All the other machines work fine, but not the server itself. I have not changed anything in the setup. When I manually ping as the user backuppc, that is set to execute the backup, there is a ping response. Successful pings with "localhost", 127.0.0.1 and 127.0.1.1. But still the backuppc backup fails - no ping response. I did find that backuppc had no rights to rsync in the sudoers file, so I added the line: backuppc ALL=NOPASSWD: /usr/sbin/rsync as given in the documentation and identical to what I have on all other hosts. But still same error: no ping response. Any suggestions on how to approach this? Backuppc is version 3.2.0-3ubuntu4.
