Hi all,

I'm using the "import data for a backup" on the wiki to import 20 GB of files (I don't want to transfer that over xDSL). I just follow the tips and tricks entry in the wiki. It did work before, but now I'm having an rsyncd issue (I think). It might be possible that rsync has been updated, at the moment it's 3.0.4.

As soon as I use the "[/srv/]" path, it doesn't work. Rsync logs this as soon as I connect:
rsyncd[23507]: Warning: invalid section name in configuration file: /srv/

But when I use the "[srv]" path, it doesn't do that and just allows connections.

The problem is that when I switch over to "real" backup, it won't be correct since (in backuppc) we're using rsync and we need the '/srv' sharename.

Does anyone have any idea on how we can workaround this?


regards,
Kristof
