[BackupPC-users] Rsyncd and WinXP
Dear All, I apologise for re-visiting this, but I am having difficulty backing up a WinXP machine over rync. I am using Backuppc version 3.1.0, and cygwin's rsync on the WinXP box. When I issue a fuill backup, I get the following message in backuppc Executing DumpPostUserCmd: /home/backuppc/Bin/NotifyUsers -h -u *...@ -m ** -c 0 -t full -s hr_info Got fatal error during xfer (chdir failed) Backup aborted (chdir failed) I have blanked out the email address, host and user for this email. I then went and looked on the WinXP in the rsync.log file and I get the following message, 2009/05/01 16:39:23 [4024] rsync: chdir /cygdrive/c/WINDOWS/system32/f:/Alvina_PET/HR_Info failed Has anyone else seen this, or can someone point me in the direction of a solution, thanks Peter -- Register Now & Save for Velocity, the Web Performance & Operations Conference from O'Reilly Media.

[BackupPC-users] cygrunsrv and Vista - Access Denied
Hi, I am trying to get a Vista box added to the computers backed up by BackupPC and I am failing when trying to add the rsyncd service at the windows end. I keep getting an 'Access Denied' using the cygrunsrv.exe. In fact, simply listing services using cygrunsrv results in the following, c:/cygwin/bin/cygrunsrv: warning: OpenService failed for 'DcomLaunch': Win32 error 5 Access is denied. c:/cygwin/bin/cygrunsrv: warning: OpenService failed for 'odserv': Win32 error 5 Access is denied. c:/cygwin/bin/cygrunsrv: warning: OpenService failed for 'ose': Win32 error 5 Access is denied. c:/cygwin/bin/cygrunsrv: warning: OpenService failed for 'pla': Win32 error 5 Access is denied. c:/cygwin/bin/cygrunsrv: warning: OpenService failed for 'QWAVE': Win32 error 5 Access is denied. c:/cygwin/bin/cygrunsrv: warning: OpenService failed for 'RpcSs': Win32 error 5 Access is denied. The user issuing the cygrunsrv.exe command has administrator privileges. Any suggestions/thoughts will be most appreciated.

Re: [BackupPC-users] cygrunsrv and Vista - Access Denied
Hi, I have managed to get the service installed via cygrunsrv.exe; thanks Cody for pointing me in the correct direction. In the end, rather than activating the 'hidden' Administrator account under Vista, I ran the command tool with as Administrator. For anyone else who hits this problem here is how I did it, Select 'Properties' on the command tool icon, there is an option to run it as Admistrator. At this point cygrunsrv.exe runs without any 'Access Denied' errors. In Vista this different to the user having administrator privleges and executing cygrunsrv.exe from the normal command tool. Hope this helps some else Peter On Monday 13 July 2009 03:07:03 pm Peter Bloomfield wrote: > Hi, > > I am trying to get a Vista box added to the computers backed up by BackupPC > and I am failing when trying to add the rsyncd service at the windows end. > > I keep getting an 'Access Denied' using the cygrunsrv.exe.
