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.
