Thanks Michael .. Have checked and rechecked settings and they seem okay ... but have included the netpublic4.pl file contents for review . I had to change the RsyncClientPath because of the system that is on the Netstore device - it works on my other system that is using RSYNC to backup the files ..
>>>>>> netpublic4.pl <<<<<<<<< $Conf{BackupFilesOnly} = { '/nfs/Public' => [ '.FULL BLAST CREATIVE Or INKPLOT PROJECTS/*', '.HOTWINGS & WINGSNBEERS/*' ] }; $Conf{RsyncClientPath} = 'rsync'; $Conf{RsyncShareName} = [ '/nfs/Public' ]; $Conf{RsyncSshArgs} = [ '-e', '$sshPath nbox' ]; $Conf{FullAgeMax} = 90; $Conf{ClientNameAlias} = [ 'Netstore' ]; $Conf{XferLogLevel} = 5; >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> end <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< I also moved the paramters for the ssh command into the config file for the host 'nbox' .. Just looks neater than the longer string that was there . and it is still failing at the same place . somehow getting the IP address stuck in the command being sent ..

And NO - I have not changed the RsyncBackupPCPath, it is still /usr/local/bin/rsync_bpc. And YES, the 192.168.1.6 is the IP address to our Netstore device. Just can't figure out why it is appearing in the command line ... aaarrrggghh (I almost hate technology!) One minor thing, it actually looks like RsyncClientPath is set to 192.168.1.6. It should look like this: $Conf{RsyncClientPath} = '/usr/bin/rsync'; Also worth checking: $Conf{RsyncSshArgs} = [ '-e', '$sshPath -l root', ];
