Ok so I can report my windows10 machines are completing full backups now
without any other changes - THANK YOU :)
My mac needs more work based on the way I have the daemon set up. I will
report back some time tomorrow, once I have had chance to work on it.
Thanks again, I really appreciate your help and backup pc is the best, have
used it for ever.

On your client the rsyncd.conf file should have a setting such as "charset =
utf-8". You'll need to make sure rsyncd reloads the rsyncd.conf file before
retesting.
If it still fails, the next thing to try is to remove --protect-args from
$Conf{RsyncArgs}.

Ok I updated as you said and now I get this when trying to do a full backup on
my mac.
This is the rsync child about to exec /usr/bin/rsync_bpc
bpc_attrib_backwardCompat: WriteOldStyleAttribFile = 0, KeepOldAttribFiles = 0

Ok, you are using rsyncd, so $Conf{RsyncSshArgs} doesn't matter.
It seems that when you upgraded to 4.0 the config file was not updated (or
perhaps these are per-host settings, which don't get updated during an
upgrade). The correct settings should be:
$Conf{RsyncFullArgsExtra} = [
'--checksum',
];
#
# Arguments to rsync for backup. Do not edit the first set unless you
# have a good understanding of rsync options.
#
$Conf{RsyncArgs} = [
'--super',
'--recursive',
'--protect-args',
'--numeric-ids',
'--perms',
'--owner',
'--group',
'-D',
'--times',
'--links',
'--hard-links',
'--delete',
'--delete-excluded',
'--partial',
'--log-format=log: %o %i %B %8U,%8G %9l %f%L',
'--stats',
];

Thanks Craig for such a quick response.
I upgraded some time ago but have been pretty lazy in posting to the mailing

Please send the first part of the log file with the full rsync command (feel
free to redact confidential arguments, but maintain any special characters etc).
Also send this client's settings for $Conf{RsyncSshArgs},
$Conf{RsyncClientPath}, $Conf{RsyncBackupPCPath}, $Conf{RsyncFullArgsExtra} and
$Conf{RsyncArgs}.

Since I upgraded to 4.0 I can no longer do full backups only incremental. I
was wondering if any one else has had this issue.
The error I have in the logs is

Xfer PIDs are now
Got fatal error during xfer (No files dumped for share changed)
Backup aborted (No files dumped for share changed)
BackupFailCleanup: nFilesTotal = 0, type = full, BackupCase = 4, inPlace = 0,

Removing empty backup #839
Incrementals appear to work fine.
Thank you in advance
