[BackupPC-users] rsyncd to import off site backup
Hi all, I'm using the import data for a backup on the wiki to import 20 GB of files (I don't want to transfer that over xDSL). I just follow the tips and tricks entry in the wiki. It did work before, but now I'm having an rsyncd issue (I think). It might be possible that rsync has been updated, at the moment it's 3.0.4. As soon as I use the [/srv/] path, it doesn't work. Rsync logs this as soon as I connect: rsyncd[23507]: Warning: invalid section name in configuration file: /srv/ But when I use the [srv] path, it doesn't do that and just allows connections. The problem is that when I switch over to real backup, it won't be correct since (in backuppc) we're using rsync and we need the '/srv' sharename. Does anyone have any idea on how we can workaround this? regards, Kristof -- Open Source Business Conference (OSBC), March 24-25, 2009, San Francisco, CA -OSBC tackles the biggest issue in open source: Open Sourcing the Enterprise -Strategies to boost innovation and cut costs with open source participation -Receive a $600 discount off the registration fee with the source code: SFAD http://p.sf.net/sfu/XcvMzF8H___ BackupPC-users mailing list BackupPC-users@lists.sourceforge.net List:https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/backuppc-users Wiki:http://backuppc.wiki.sourceforge.net Project: http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/

As of rsync v3.0.? the [/srv/] is not allowed anymore. You can only use [srv], /'s are not allowed. When using rsync v2.6.9 (on debian etch) it works without any problem. So it's related to the version of rsync. :-( Regards, Kristof. -- Open Source Business Conference (OSBC), March 24-25, 2009, San Francisco, CA -OSBC tackles the biggest issue in open source: Open Sourcing the Enterprise -Strategies to boost innovation and cut costs with open source participation -Receive a $600 discount off the registration fee with the source code: SFAD http://p.sf.net/sfu/XcvMzF8H___ BackupPC-users mailing list BackupPC-users@lists.sourceforge.net List:https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/backuppc-users Wiki:http://backuppc.wiki.sourceforge.net Project: http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/
