OK we are getting somewhere!!
If I tell it to ONLY backup the rsyncd directory then
it is successful.
$Conf{XferMethod} = 'rsyncd';
$Conf{RsyncShareName} = 'cDrive';
$Conf{BackupFilesOnly} = 'rsyncd';
##$Conf{BackupFilesExclude} = ['Documents and
Settings/*/Local Settings', 'RECYCLER', 'System Volume
Information', 'pagefile.sys'];
$Conf{RsyncdUserName} = 'backuppc';
$Conf{RsyncdPasswd} = 'wolf';
Now when I try to backup something else besides just
the rsyncd directory I get:
2006-08-24 09:53:42 full backup started for directory
cDrive
2006-08-24 09:53:52 Got fatal error during xfer
(fileListReceive failed)
2006-08-24 09:53:57 Backup aborted (fileListReceive
failed)
So I tried to use only exclude and commented out the
include section:
#$Conf{BackupFilesOnly} = 'rsyncd';
$Conf{BackupFilesExclude} = ['Documents and
Settings/*/Local Settings', '*/Temp', 'RECYCLER',
'System Volume Information', '*/Cache',
'pagefile.sys'];
Same error, Backup aborted (fileListReceive failed)
/pc/client/config.pl
$Conf{XferMethod} = 'rsyncd';
$Conf{RsyncShareName} = 'cDrive';
#$Conf{BackupFilesOnly} = 'rsyncd';
$Conf{BackupFilesExclude} = ['Documents and
Settings/*/Local Settings', 'RECYCLER', 'System Volume
Information', 'pagefile.sys'];
$Conf{RsyncdUserName} = 'backuppc';
$Conf{RsyncdPasswd} = '****';
