Changing the method to rsyncd made some progress.  It now connects on port
873.  I am now getting this error



A command for l-jwest17b.corpnet.com is on the command queue (will run
soon).

Last status is state "idle" (backup failed) as of 9/19 08:56.

Last error is "Unknown module '/'".

Pings to l-jwest17b.corpnet.com have succeeded 43 consecutive times



My config is now



[root@backuppc pc]# vi l-jwest17b.corpnet.com.pl

$Conf{RsyncdClientPort} = 873;

$Conf{ClientNameAlias} = 'l-jwest17b.corpnet.com';

$Conf{XferMethod} = 'rsyncd';

$conf{RsyncShareName} = 'C';

$Conf{FullAgeMax} = '8';

$Conf{RsyncClientCmd} = 'backuppc $host $rsyncPath $argList+';

$Conf{RsyncClientRestoreCmd} = '$sshPath -q -x -l backuppc $host $rsyncPath
$argList+';

If you are running a standalone rsync daemon on the target system, use
rsyncd as the xfermethod instead of rsync.

And the sharename(s) should match the 'modules' you configured in your
rsyncd.conf.
