I have configured the user backuppc on my backuppc server to login to the 
client 
machine using an authed key.

[EMAIL PROTECTED] ssh backup_client

works FINE!

i have configured the server thusly:



#
$Conf{ClientNameAlias} = 'backup_client';

#
# If the server can't be pinged, put this in so ping "works"
#
$Conf{PingPath} = '/usr/bin/true';

#
# Tell BackupPC which user name and password to use.  This should
# match the userName:password pair in the C:\rsyncd\rsyncd.secrets
# file on the client.
#

$Conf{rsyncPath} = '/usr/pkg/bin/rsync';
$Conf{sshPath} = '/usr/local/bin/ssh';
# $Conf{sshPath} =  'echo >>/tmp/rsync.cmd ' ; # tried to force some
#logging.  didnt work.

$quote = "'";
$Conf{RsyncClientCmd} = '$sshPath -vvv -x -l backuppc backup_client '. 
'$rsyncPath $argList+';

# $Conf{RsyncdUserName} = 'techadm';
# $Conf{RsyncdPasswd} = '';

$Conf{RsyncArgs} = [
          # original arguments here
          '--numeric-ids',
          '--perms',
          '--owner',
          '--group',
          '--devices',
          '--links',
          '--times',
          '--block-size=2048',
          '--recursive',

          # my args
          '--specials',                      # <-----------
          '--one-file-system'
];

#
# Tell BackupPC which share to backup.  This should be the name
# of the module from C:\rsyncd\rsyncd.conf on the client (the
# name inside the square brackets).  In the sample rsynd.conf
# file the cDrive module is the entire C drive.
#

$Conf{RsyncShareName} = '/mnt/weekly/';

#$Conf{BackupFilesOnly} = {
#  'Inventory' => [
#    '/home/backup/weekly'
#  ]
#};

$Conf{XferMethod} = 'rsync';
$Conf{XferLogLevel} = 5;



but the result in the logs is:

007-07-05 19:03:14 full backup started for directory /mnt/weekly/
2007-07-05 19:03:19 Got fatal error during xfer (fileListReceive failed)



Both systems are using rsync protocol v 29.



Any ideas where to look first?
