Hi Tyler,

Here is the config for that host:

$Conf{PartialAgeMax} = '0'; # Added per Craig's recommendation
$Conf{BackupsDisable} = '1';
$Conf{RsyncClientCmd} = 'sudo $rsyncPath $argList+';
$Conf{RsyncClientRestoreCmd} = 'sudo $rsyncPath $argList+';
$Conf{RsyncShareName} = [ '/boot', '/lib/modules', '/home', '/etc',
'/var/backups', '/var/cache/apt', '/var/lib/apt', '/var/log', '/root',
'/usr/local', '/var/lib/dpkg' ];

In the main config, I am using  "--checksum-seed=32761" in RsyncArgs,
which enables it for everything.

--b
