If I kill the sshd that's assigned to the user (not the daemon itself), then all the stuff stays running (vshadow, rsyncd, etc) and the backup can continue) If I don't enable the vss portion, it works just fine, starting rsyncd, and closing the ssh link. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Free Next-Gen Firewall Hardware Offer Buy your Sophos next-gen firewall before the end March 2013 and get the hardware for free!
