I have a backup server which backs up multiple machines. I added a machine, and it has thus far failed to back up. The error I am getting is

ping too slow: 119msec (threshold is 100msec)

To the end of the config file, I have added

:$Conf{PingMaxMsec} = '500';

and I restarted backuppc. However, I am still getting the same error. Am I mistaken or should the value in the individual server file override the one in config.pl? If this is the case, what is keeping the change from occurring?

Thanks,
