Hi All, I'm attempting to set-up BackupPC for use with our linux server infrastructure, using either rsync or rsyncd. I'm currently running the Ubuntu package of BackupPC (Version 3.3.2-3), with rsync_bpc version 3.1.3.0 protocol version 31.
So far things work great! However, I'm running into problems when attempting to preserve ACLs. So in either the global config or the host specific config, I add the following to the rsyncExtraArgs: --acls and I've also tried adding --fake-super along with the acls option, and every time I run a backup with the acls arg, I get the following: rsyncd attempt: full backup started for directory netfiles (baseline backup #2) Connected to filesrv1:873, remote version 31 Negotiated protocol version 28 Connected to module netfiles Sending args: --server --sender --numeric-ids --perms --owner --group -D --links --hard-links --times --recursive --acls --ignore-times . . Read EOF: Tried again: got 0 bytes Done: 0 files, 0 bytes Got fatal error during xfer (Unable to read 4 bytes) Backup aborted (Unable to read 4 bytes) Not saving this as a partial backup since it has fewer files than the prior one (got 0 and 0 files versus 0) rsync attempt: full backup started for directory netfiles (baseline backup #2) Running: /usr/bin/ssh -q -x -l root filesrv1 /usr/bin/rsync --server --sender --numeric-ids --perms --owner --group -D --links --hard-links --times --recursive --acls --ignore-times . netfiles/ Xfer PIDs are now 141899 Rsync command pid is 141899 Got remote protocol 31 Negotiated protocol version 28 Checksum seed is 1667312941 Got checksumSeed 0x63612d2d Read EOF: Tried again: got 0 bytes fileListReceive() failed Done: 0 files, 0 bytes Got fatal error during xfer (fileListReceive failed) Backup aborted (fileListReceive failed) Not saving this as a partial backup since it has fewer files than the prior one (got 0 and 0 files versus 0) Is there something I'm missing? ACL functionality is critical for that server as we rely on the POSIX ACLs.
