As you know, or should know, 'orange' is the name of a telecom monopolistic company formerly called 'france telecom' in france, as such, these people are very angry and resentful because they lost their privileges when this company was privatized. So, in order to get back their former position and revenge, they swear to indefinitely devote themselves to the mighty god "unanswered call" and goddess "twisted pair copper" (very filthy this one). So, as my BPC crystal balls say, there is a very high possibility they took offense of your machine name, stole you the digital equivalent of a beard hair or hair strand in the form of a byte from your browser and stuffed it in a tux puppet representing your computer. To achieve their miserable goal, they hired a very cruel and powerful Russo-Chinese warlock, who's in fact half Béninois (from Bénin) by the cousin of the half-sister's of his grand-aunt's cleaning lady. As you know, or should know, Bénin was formerly called Dahomet and is considered to be the mother country of voodoo. So, each time you try to BPC you're machine, he plunges little darts in his tux puppet and mutter a devilish incantation to make your live miserable. So, your only solution is to jump in a plane going to Haïti and once there, ask for Robert Duval tomb, but you can only ask a 34 years old virgin ginger girl born on February 29th, and you must do this at exactly midnight a night of full moon. Once you'll know where it is, you'll have to wait for the next red moon and be standing in front of the grave at 11:47:29PM precisely, then you'll have to sing the salve regina three times in a row not missing a music note, a word and sing them in the right tune - DO NOT accelerate the tempo, it would amplify the problem, making it almost impossible to solve. Then you'll kneel and wait for Robert Duval to raise from the dead (NB: this might take some time, depending on his mood, YMMV.) When he'll be out, you will ask him how to get rid of this curse, but the most important is to NOT forget to offer him a little goat (less than 1 year old but more than 11 months and 25 days) named Patricia that you brought with you, because not doing so would nullify your quest. Once you'll get your answer, you'll only have 2 hours to go back home and ward the curse off, otherwise you'll have to do it all over again from the beginning. Your chances of success can be evaluated to ~8%; there is another way to achieve that, but it is so terrible that nobody wants to talk about it. > 64 bytes from orange (192.168.220.27): icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=8.25 ms > --- orange.vpn ping statistics --- > 1 packets transmitted, 1 received, 0% packet loss, time 0ms > rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 8.259/8.259/8.259/0.000 ms I guess this terrible timing is due to the VPN liaison > At the client side (rsyncd): Hmm, did you try with the rsync method instead of the rsyncd one? I remember, long time ago, I had some problems with rsyncd and BPC in the same LAN - may be it was my fault, may be not, my notes juste say not to use rsyncd. > Could you help me to fix the issue??? Nope, it is in Robert Duval's hands from now. > Anton Jean-Yves ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 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 [email protected] List: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/backuppc-users Wiki: http://backuppc.wiki.sourceforge.net Project: http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/
