Hi,
I try to backup my local host.
I made these settings:
$Conf{RsyncClientCmd} = ' /usr/bin/sudo $rsyncPath $argList+';
Using:
$Conf{RsyncClientPath} = '/usr/bin/sudo /usr/bin/rsync';
works for me
Which settings are missing?

Hello Johny,
I've got a bigsur client I'd like to backup. Whzen I manualy connect
from the backup server, with the right account, everything works.

Hi,
I successfull backup /var/home/bob/files/* .

$Conf{BackupFilesExclude} = {
'*' => [
'/junk',
'/dont_back_this_up'
],
'/home'
Hi Pim,

After changing the shell to /bin/bash for backuppc, all errors disappe
Hi Pim,
Without DumpPreUserCmd I get the following error when initiating an incremental
backup through the web interface:
Got fatal error during xfer (rsync error: unexplained error (code 255)
at io.c(226) [Receiver=3.1.2.0])
that reminds me, that I'm using rsync-bpc version 3.0.9.14
Hello Pim,
using jumphost here for backing up a remote host and it's VMs without
any problems. What BackupPC version do you use?
I am using BackupPC 4.3.1-3 from the yum repository for CentOS 7. Very

Hi,
Option B: using an SSH client config file
Alternatively I have tried using an implicit jump host through SSH client
config with a slightly different way of setting up the jump host (through
netcat). This results in exactly the same errors.
Host client-machine
ProxyCommand ssh jumphost

When a backup is canceled by the user, the error text is whatever was
last in the log. It might not be a real error.
It is not canceled by the user but DumpPreShareCmd returns 1 and thus
makes BackupPC not running the backup.
