Hello. I have installed BackupPC 3.2.1 on a FreeBSD server to back several Windows workstations up. The Xfer method is rsyncd. Some of them workstations work fine, but three display strange behaviour:
1) One gives “inet connect: Connection refused” though “telnet <IP> 873” from the very same FreeBSD server works just time. BackupPC managed to make a successful backup of one share (of two) on this computer once. Not sure what was different. 2) One gives “no ping”, then, after making $PingCmd for it empty, “inet connect: Operation timed out”. telnet is successful as well here; “nmblookup <name>” or “ping -c 1 <IP>” don't show any problems when run from shell either. 3) The only Windows 7 box (the others are XP). Just plain “inet connect: Operation timed out”, can't connect from any other computer as well. To sum up, I have two problems: BackupPC not connecting while everybody else can, and rsyncd not working properly on Windows 7. Any help will be strongly appreciated. The bizarre BackupPC failures are making me question my sanity.
