Hi all! For some time I had trouble with rsync and ssh. My problem was that the ssh connection would stop after a few seconds with this error in backuppc log:
Got fatal error during xfer (fileListReceive failed) and in the /var/log/messages: Disconnecting: Corrupted MAC on input. After searching for a while and doing some digging i found that i had files that would cause ssh to exit, usually you can exit ssh with "~." and in fact i had files with that name and content. what i did on backuppc config page was: on the main configuration editor, xfer: RsyncClientCmd $sshPath -q -x -l root $host $rsyncPath $argList+ changed to $sshPath -e none -q -x -l root $host $rsyncPath $argList+ RsyncClientRestoreCmd $sshPath -q -x -l root $host $rsyncPath $argList+ changed to $sshPath -e none -q -x -l root $host $rsyncPath $argList+ this will avoid escape caracters. what do you guys think on putting this by default on the next release? cheers, Pedro ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ BackupPC-users mailing list BackupPC-users@lists.sourceforge.net List: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/backuppc-users Wiki: http://backuppc.wiki.sourceforge.net Project: http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/
