Hi, I am trying to set up the rsync XferMethod to backup a linux (Mandrake) machine.
- I have added the host to the hosts list - created a config.pl file that overrides the general smb method config - set up openssh on the client and server according to the backuppc documentation I cannot understand why this appears on the Xfer Log when I try to backup: Running: /usr/bin/ssh -q -x -l root wisla /usr/bin/rsync --server --sender --verbose --numeric-ids --perms --owner --g roup --devices --links --times --block-size=2048 --recursive --ignore-times . /var/lib/asterisk/agi-bin/ Xfer PIDs are now 18527 Read EOF: Connection reset by peer Tried again: got 0 bytes Done: 0 files, 0 bytes Got fatal error during xfer (Unable to read 4 bytes) Backup aborted (Unable to read 4 bytes) Any ideas anyone please? I am used to setting up rsyncd and smb and am using rsync as a last resort method now.
