[BackupPC-users] Backup with Rsync doesn´t work

Hi, I want to use Rsync, but it doesn´t work and I don´t know what it could be. Backuping with tar works fine. SSH Connection works too. Only Rsync makes problems. My host config file is this: $Conf{XferMethod} = 'rsync'; $Conf{RsyncClientPath} = '/usr/bin/rsync'; $Conf{RsyncClientCmd} =

[BackupPC-users] hosts with multiple IP addresses.

Dear BackupPC users, I'm currently evaluating backupPC for my org. Looking promising so far. I have some systems (laptops) which may appear on my network under a variety of IP ranges. I use sticky DHCP, so, for example, laptop-A.N.Other | |__wired MAC = AB:CD:EF-> IP = A.B.C.D

[BackupPC-users] backup of windows 2003 .bkf files

Hello List, I'm running into problems when trying to backup .bkf files from windows2003 backup. My normal backups are running fine. I'm using rsync over ssh for backups of our linux boxes and samba for our windows boxes. I didn't change anything about the samba config in the general config.pl.
