I am using BackupPC 4.0 on a debian distro to backup two windows computers
running Cygwin. I am using rsyncd as the vehicle to back them up. When I try to
start a backup, the backup fails apparently because of an rsync_bpc issue. The
log file entries are below:

In one of the log files, it indicates the following: ?Running:
/usr/local/bin/rsync_bpc? and it has the following error message: ?ERROR:
failed to read a password from /data/BackupPC/pc/agm-pc/.rsyncdpw5658?.
Does anyone recognize that error and know what it means? It seems as though it
needs some sort of password but I don't know where to input a password. The
only password I know of is in the secrets file on the target Windows machines,
but this looks like it is not even connecting to even get that far.
Thanks in advance.
