That's strange. Systemd is supposed to be default for new installs but you should not be moved over to it during an upgrade, iirc. How did you upgrade? > None of the documentation mentions anything about systemd setup. If you mean Debian documentation, then you are mostly right, the release notes[1] are quite sparse on the topic, instead pointing you at the wiki[2]. However both pages state quite clearly that you can keep sysvinit installed and switch between them via a kernel option. (If you don't know how to apply kernel options, then this isn't much use I agree. A forward-link to how to do that would be useful.) > I found some script for rsync to write rsyincd.socket and rsyncd.service and > put them in /lib/systemd/system directory. Where?

Where you got the script from? Possibly because the script is wrong and the author unaware of how to do it properly. However it should work in either location: it's just /etc is not going to be overwritten by package updates. > Rsync doesn't seem to be working. Can you provide an example of a command that doesn't work? Or are you the rsync daemon? There's not much for us to go on here! > Further there is no documentation for setting up BackupPC for systemd. The backuppc package does not contain a systemd unit file, but systemd starts up services which have init scripts. I use backuppc and systemd together and have not had any problems. What problems are you experiencing, specifically?
