Hi
all,
I've been using
BackupPC to backup Windows clients for over a year and all is running
well.
I've got other data
on the BackupPC server that I'd like to backup regularly also, but I'm having
problems getting the server to backup the '/' and '/boot'
directories.
The client are being
backed up by rsyncd running on the clients.
In reviewing the
documentation, rsync is the best to backup a Linux (FC4) server. I'm
excluding the directories '/proc' '/mnt' (BackupPC data is stored on a drive
mounted from here) and '/var/log'.
The logs report the
following:
2008-12-17 18:20:16 full backup started for
directory '/boot'
2008-12-17 18:21:08 full backup started for directory
'/'
2008-12-17 18:21:09 Got fatal error during xfer (fileListReceive
failed)
2008-12-17 18:21:14 Backup aborted (fileListReceive
failed)
BackupPC
v3.0.0
rsync-2.6.8-1.FC4.1
Any pointers would
be much appreciated.
