This is for Fedora 26. Backuppc is working fine backing up all sorts of client computers!!!! But conquering backing up itself seems to be very complex.
I set up a service rsyncd using instructions at https://lists.fedorapro ject.org/pipermail/users/2011-November/408706.html This seems to work, but things have gotten worse instead of better :-( Because When I run: [bobkatz@localhost ~]$ rsync localhost.localdomain:: rsync: failed to connect to localhost.localdomain (::1): Connection refused (111) rsync: failed to connect to localhost.localdomain (127.0.0.1): Connection refused (111) rsync error: error in socket IO (code 10) at clientserver.c(125) [Receiver=3.1.2] [bobkatz@localhost ~]$ Whereas previously when I was trying to run an rsync daemon using simply sudo rsync --daemon, I was able to get the rsync localhost.localdomain to respond with the name of the rsync module It's a mess and I wish I could back out of it and start from scratch. Also in the process I tried to create a xinet.d method of initiating rsync and I fear a conflict. All I did was install xinetd and create some config files but I can try to back out of that if you think it's creating a conflict. I repeat, it's a mess.... I don't know where to start debugging at this point. I'm so sorry, Bob ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ 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/
