If I ssh over to the system I can do a command line /usr/bin/sudo /usr/bin/rsync -av /etc m...@blackstar.sr.unh.edu:~mlm/ this works This is the error I get from the backuppc logs rsync error: unexplained error (code 255) at io.c(226) [Receiver=3.1.2.1] rsync_bpc exited with fatal status 255 (65280) (rsync error: unexplained error (code 255) at io.c(226) [Receiver=3.1.2.1]) This is the rsync child about to exec /usr/local/bin/rsync_bpc bpc_attrib_backwardCompat: WriteOldStyleAttribFile = 0, KeepOldAttribFiles = 0 rsync_bpc: connection unexpectedly closed (0 bytes received so far) [Receiver] Also I have a different CentOS 8 system where I do the backup as root and it works. Any suggestions on further troubleshooting this issue?
