Here is my rsyncd.conf file:

transfer logging = yes
Here is my rsyncd.secrets file:
#
# The format of this file is user:password. You can have as many entries
# as you wish. These accounts are sepecifc to the rsync daemon and share
# no relation to Windows local/domain accounts, nor Cywin entries in the
# passwd file.
#
# SECURITY WARNING: Don't use these defaults of UUU for the user name
# and PPP for the password! Change them!!
#
# Also: make sure this file ends in a newline. Otherwise the last
# username/password pair will be ignored.

backuppc:*****
root:*****
Here is my per pc config.pl

# a service/daemon on the client system
#

$Conf{RsyncdPasswd} = '******';
$Conf{RsyncdAuthRequired} = 1;
#
# Tell BackupPC which share to backup. This should be the name
# of the module from C:\rsyncd\rsyncd.conf on the client (the

I received this error meesage last night when my backups ran:
backup failed (aborted by signal=PIPE)
Could anyone tell me what this means.
Byron, perhaps you should post your rsyncd.conf on your Window's box and pc
config.pl from BackupPC to the list. Make sure to censor your passwords if
necessary. It seems like you have a simple misconfiguration issue but it's
hard to pin point without specifics.
