Subject: [BackupPC-users] Backuppc & Win2016
Been using Backuppc for Windows and Linux servers for years now, added
a Win2016 server and have set it up as usual, but it won't back up the
server. Can't figure out what's going on and the logs are no help
either.
If from the server I try a rsync --list-only it lists everything. I
used to actually have the full rsync command to try out a sync as the
backuppc would, but I can't seem to find it anywhere.
Once I start a full backup, it lists it as being started and never
stops. But nothing is going on. Listing what jobs are going on with a
'ps axwww', I see for the server in question only:
0:00 /usr/bin/perl /usr/share/backuppc/bin/BackupPC_dump [servername]
it never gets beyond that.
Any clues?
Could it be that the first backup takes a long time to hash (or whatever)
the file list before the backup-procedure actually starts?
Is the firewall on the Win-server setup to allow incoming connections from
your BPC-server?
FWIW, I've never been able to backup our AD-connected Windows 2000/2008/2012
servers, unless I've used DeltaCopy.
Maybe Windows 2016 is the same.
More info about DeltaCopy:

HTH.
Right now should only be backing up one directory which has basically
nothing in it.
As for the firewall, no. I can do rsync from the BPC server and get a
list of all the stuff it should backup. Just did a manual rsync and it
copies everything over.
I've done the same setup for Windows 2000 and 2008 servers. Never an
issue. But now..... something is going on and can't figure it out.
I saw stuff on DetlaCopy and would rather not go that route yet.
Since rsync works, I figured out a crazy way to make it work. Note it
should be using rsyncd
Basically I had to tell the BPC server that the directories were of the
following format:
../../cygdrive/c/Users/[username]/Documents
Using rsyncd, however, it should be referring to the rsyncd.conf file
on the server and using the information contained therein about the
folders.
