Re: [BackupPC-users] no ssh access backuppc server to Windows 7 client

Hi,

Windows 7 firewall blocks any incoming connection by default. You must add an exception for tcp port.

I have been using BackupPC for many years with Linux clients. All has always gone well.

Recently it has become necessary to add a Windows 7 client.

I downloaded the "cygwin-rsyncd-3.0.9.0_installer.exe" from sourceforge and installed it.

I have created a backuppc user (on the Windows box) that has backup and administrator rights. One of the next steps I did was to open port 22 for ssh access on the Windows box. When I go to the backuppc server, I cannot ssh into the windows box. So, if I can't ssh in, backuppc does not have access to the windows box. The server can ping the windows box ipaddress.

Does anyone know what log files I can 'tail' to figure out why I cannot ssh into the Windows box from the backuppc server?
