Re: [BackupPC-users] Incremental Errors
Looks like I had 2 backuppc daemons running. So both daemons were starting the backup at the same time and then they were tripping over each other. I killed the second one and and restarted the daemon. Looks like it's working again with no issues.

[BackupPC-users] Incremental Errors

[BackupPC-users] Compression Issue
It appears that I'm not getting any compression on my backups at least with my Windows clients. I think my mac clients are being compressed since it's actually stating a compression level in the host summary. I have the compression level set to 9. I have the Compress::Zlib perl library installed. ppo-backup:/home/heathy# perl -MCompress::Zlib -e "print \"Module installed.\\n\";" Module installed. Is there a secret to SMB compression?

Re: [BackupPC-users] Exclusions List
Hmm. I tried */*.mp3 and /*.mp3. It's still picking up the test mp3 files. I make a new file ever incremental to see if it picks it up. I'm not seeing the filters when I run the incremental: /usr/bin/ssh -q -x -l root 171.67.220.30 /usr/bin/rsync --server --sender --numeric- ids --perms --owner --group -D --links --hard-links --times --block- size=2048 --recursive . /Users/heathy/Music/ Should I see my filters in the command that gets run?

[BackupPC-users] Exclusions List
I'm having problems getting the exclusions to work. Server is a debian 5 box running version 3.1. I'm backing up an OSX client via ssh rsync. The backup part is working. The problem is that the exclusions aren't working. For example i'm trying to exclude mp3s. So I've added both *.mp3 and .mp3 to the exclusion list and it's still backing up the mp3s. I'm wondering if I'm missing something. The examples of the exclusions only show directories and not files even though it states it can exclude files. "List of directories or files to exclude from the backup." Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thanks, Heath -- Come build with us!
