What version of rsync are you running on the client?
Another user reported a problem that the default cygwin rsync setup on 3.x
doesn't allow remote charset settings. BackupPC 4.x uses the --iconv rsync
option, which will fail without a clear error message.
You should add "charset = utf-8" to the client's rsyncd.conf to see if that's
the issue.
(Since it fails very early in the transfer, I'd recommend you add "-vvv" to
$Conf{RsyncArgs}.)

I know that it is probably something simple, but maybe not. I am running
backuppc version 4.41 on a Debian computer. BackupPC starts and I can access
it through the CGI interface. I am attempting to backup my Windows 10
computer. When I start a backup, it appears to properly connect to my Windows
computer and then gives me an error message. “Got fatal error during xfer
(rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(629)
[Receiver=3.0.9.6])” Though the log file is set at 3, there is not much
information therein to diagnose the problem. A copy of the log file is below.
Any help would be appreciated. Please note that I am able to ssh and rsync
into the Windows computer manually from the linux computer without problem. It
is set up for password-less ssh login. Thanks. Akibu
