Have you check the access from root at the dirvish-pc to the pc from which the backup shoud be made? see: http://edseek.com/~jasonb/articles/dirvish_backup/transport.html#transportssh
Maybe, did you change the standard ssh Port? So you have to add to your default.conf << rsh: ssh -p xxx client: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >> xx for your port Make sure that both pc's have rsync installed. If nothing of this helps you, you can try to run the command manually !without the exclude part! Because the exclude-file is made while drivish runs and only exist while dirvish run. Maybe i can help you better when you post a more detailed error-report. Grez. Frank fsdfds fdsf wrote .. > > Hi, > > I got the default configs.
