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.

Kind Regards
