Hi,
I have BackupPC 4.x running on a Debian system. Works like
a champ since years now.
One of my clients is an Apple Mac with current up-to-date
MacOS. rsync is installed:
username@macos Documents % rsync --version
rsync version 2.6.9 protocol version 29

So far it works fine. It does the backupsand all is good.
I am backing up the Users-Folder as "$RsyncShareName":
"/Users/username" and excluded some unneeded directories.
See macos.pl:
$Conf{BackupPCNightlyPeriod} = 1;
$Conf{RsyncShareName} = [
'/Users/username'
];
$Conf{RsyncSshArgs} = [
'-e',
'$sshPath -l username'
];
In reviewing again your settings I see that you have the
nightly period configured as a per host value to do a full
traverse as I do, but for my system this is configured on
the server and not by client. I also see that your:
'$sshPath -l username'
lists username. For my setup that username is backuppc for
all clients. Do you have different usernames configured for
each client?
One thing I've noticed in the nightly process is that even
with the setting to traverse the whole pool in one night it
seems that I'll get a big prune (4-5) G's late in the weekly
cycle.
