Hi, (Sigh... So many problems with this backup...)
I was trying to configure a backup of the localhost. For a test, I took 2 test directories with 2 2 liner text files as the thing to backup. I configured 'sudo' and setup for this host is: $Conf{RsyncClientCmd} = 'sudo $rsyncPath $argList+' When I run it, it gives me this: incr backup started back to 2007-07-19 22:18:50 (backup #3) for directory /opt/testingBackup1 Running: sudo /usr/bin/rsync --server --sender --numeric-ids --perms --owner --group -D --links --times --block-size=2048 --recursive . /opt/testingBackup1/ Xfer PIDs are now 6667 Got remote protocol 1667594309 Fatal error (bad version): Exec failed for sudo /usr/bin/rsync --server --sender --numeric-ids --perms --owner --group -D --links --times --block-size=2048 --recursive . /opt/testingBackup1/ Read EOF: Connection reset by peer Tried again: got 0 bytes fileListReceive() failed Done: 0 files, 0 bytes Got fatal error during xfer (fileListReceive failed) Backup aborted (fileListReceive failed) I Googled it and people seem to say that this has something to do with the rsync version. My version is: rsync version 2.6.9 protocol version 29 The strange thing is that I just setup the whole thing as one user doing ssh as root and rsync worked just fine then. Anyone know what's going on here? Thanks, Yaakov. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
