Are you sure you understand the difference between the rsync and rsyncd methods? Rsyncd expects a standalone rsync daemon listening on the client and backs up 'shares' in the rsyncd.conf setup. The rsync method connects over ssh to the client and either needs to connect as root on the client or have a more convoluted sudo configuration to have permission to read everything. -- Les Mikesell lesmikes...@gmail.com _______________________________________________ BackupPC-users mailing list BackupPC-users@lists.sourceforge.net List: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/backuppc-users Wiki: https://github.com/backuppc/backuppc/wiki Project: https://backuppc.github.io/backuppc/
