I'm having a problem trying to restore files to my clients from my
backuppc server. I am using rsync over ssh. The backups work great, but
when I try to restore a file (I've just been trying to restore /etc/hosts
to test the setup), it just hangs. I flushed my iptables, so it's not a
firewall issue. When I run the restore, here are the relevant process
listings on both the backuppc server (hostname: backup) and the client
(hostname: sechost) to which I'm attempting to restore:

Backup PC Server:

backuppc 30304  1.0  1.1  14224 10448 ?        S    19:39   0:00
/usr/bin/perl /usr/share/backuppc/bin/BackupPC_restore sechost sechost
restoreReq.30303.0
backuppc 30307  0.0  0.2   5060  2292 ?        S    19:39   0:00
/usr/bin/ssh -q -x -l root sechost /usr/bin/rsync --server --perms --owner
--group -D --links --hard-links --times --block-size=2048 --relative
--ignore-times --recursive . /etc/

Client System:

root     25842  0.0  0.2   2892  1220 ?        Ss   19:39   0:00 tcsh -c
/usr/bin/rsync --server --perms --owner --group -D --links --hard-links
--times --block-size=2048 --relative --ignore-times --recursive . /etc/
root     25846  0.0  0.1   2224   664 ?        S    19:39   0:00
/usr/bin/rsync --server --perms --owner --group -D --links --hard-links
--times --block-size=2048 --relative --ignore-times --recursive . /etc/


Both servers are running Debian Linux. The backup server has rsync version
3.0.3. The other server has rsync version 2.6.9. The backup server has
BackupPC version 3.1.0-3 installed (from the debian package).
