[Please CC any replies directly to me] I'm trying to backup my desktop machine with rsync, without luck. It is running Windows XP, and I am using the provided rsyncd package. My backuppc server is running on Ubuntu Dapper. Here's some versions:
ii backuppc 2.1.2-2ubuntu5 high-performance, enterprise-grade system fo ii libfile-rsyncp 0.52-1 A perl based implementation of an Rsync clie ii rsync 2.6.6-1ubuntu2 fast remote file copy program (like rcp) I am attempting to backup three shares. The first one completes, but the second one result appears to have some kind of overflow and can't get the filelist.
