I created a new share on an existing web server that I am backing up. The
host configuration file was called '1and1-MW-common.pl', consistent with
the case of the directory that I was backing up. I had added
'1and1-MW-common 0 user' to the backuppc 'hosts' file. The backups were
not starting, supposedly because of slow PING times, even though I had set
'$Conf{PingMaxMsec} = 1000;' in the configuration file. To make a long
story short, it appears that backuppc converted the host name in the
'hosts' file to lower case, and was looking for (but did not find)
'1and1-mw-common.pl'. I renamed the host configuration file and
everything is sunny once again.
I am running backuppc 2-1-2 on an Ubuntu 6.10 server - waiting for a
package to be available before upgrading.
