I'm not an IT specialist but have successfully setup a Backuppc system at my 
small museum that has been running well for several years. I have 15 or so 
clients, mostly XP with some Vista, and Windows 7 with a few Macs and Linux 
machines as well. Most of the Windows machines I do with DeltaCopy and ryncd, 
which has generally worked fine. However, I just installed W7 on one that had 
run XP. I did it as a new host and used as a template a W7 config file from a 
host that has given no problems. For excludes, I use the list given by 
http://www.cs.umd.edu/~cdunne/projs/backuppc_guide.html Everything else is 
default.

However, I can't get the new one to do a complete backup. It keeps terminating 
with the following error:

Read EOF: Connection reset by peer
Tried again: got 0 bytes
finish: removing in-process file Tina/Desktop/Parkinson Disks/everybodystep.mid
Child is aborting
Parent read EOF from child: fatal error!
Done: 1903 files, 2835124878 bytes
Got fatal error during xfer (Child exited prematurely)
Backup aborted (Child exited prematurely)
Saving this as a partial backup

In several tries, the in-process file varies as does the time it runs before 
terminating. 

I've seen this once before in a computer that I switched from SMB to rsyncd. 
That computer ultimately worked itself out without me doing anything, but I 
would like to know why this is happening. 

Appreciate if anyone can point in the right direction.
