Hi Alexander,
Thank you for your answer, I am newbie so it was out of my mind to check
why the xfermethod would be rsync instead of rsyncd for the localhost.
So I changed it to rsyncd. Anyway it won't run .
I set up the rsyncd.conf and create on module :
[boot]
path = /boot
comment = all boot files to be backupc
I didn't put the auth user and password because after some try it say auth
failure and I prefer to troubelshoot it after resolving this issue
I am not sure what to put in the $Conf{RsyncShareName} but when I run
Backuppc-dump -i localhost, there is some errors in the output as you can
see below.
I printed all the output and underlined all the errors for more clarity
