Mine is set to be my backup user. I'm not sure what the default is, but if it's uid = administrator, that might not give you enough rights to see everything. I'm pretty sure it needs to be run as someone who is in the "Backup Operators" group. Additionally, on my systems I found that some files were not readable by the "Backup Operators" group. That made it impossible for me to backup those files until I fixed the problem. -Rob The information transmitted is intended only for the person or entity to which it is addressed and may contain confidential and/or privileged material.

[BackupPC-users] Rsyncd on XP
I was having problems with SMB on XP pro so have shifted gears and am trying Rsyncd. I ran a full backup of the cDrive setup. The problem is that I am using a backup user I created that is part of the user group "Backup Operators". I do get files backed up but... The only files I get in the Documents and Settings folder is the backup user's files (basically empty). There are other users there and I need to get those files backed up as well. There seems to be a permission problem and I can't get the other users files backed up. How do I get all the users files backed up using Rsynced?
