Hi all,
I set up BackupPC at home to make more systematic backups of mine and wifeys
homefolders on the samba-server and ran into the somewhat dreaded "Unable to
read 4 bytes"-error.
Problem is *maybe* that the host to be backed up is running sshd on port 522.
What I've done so far is to create the passwordless login with my backuppc-user
to the host, tested and this works.
As the backuppc-user I can login to the host using ssh over port 522 without
entering a password and becoming root.
Rsync is used as the transfer method, BTW.
In the BPC web-GUI, I've added port 522 to RsyncClientCMD, so that now it reads:
$sshPath -q -x -l -p 522 root $host $rsyncPath $argList+
Was this correct to do?
I've tried to disable iptables on the host, with no change, still getting the 4
byte-error.
What am I missing?? Is there something with rsync not connecting properly maybe?
Hints appreciated.
Thanks.
