This is for Fedora 26. Backuppc is working fine backing up all sorts of
client computers!!!! But conquering backing up itself seems to be very
complex. 

I set up a service rsyncd using instructions at https://lists.fedorapro
ject.org/pipermail/users/2011-November/408706.html

This seems to work, but things have gotten worse instead of better :-(

Because When I run: 

[bobkatz@localhost ~]$ rsync localhost.localdomain::
rsync: failed to connect to localhost.localdomain (::1): Connection
refused (111)
rsync: failed to connect to localhost.localdomain (127.0.0.1):
Connection refused (111)
rsync error: error in socket IO (code 10) at clientserver.c(125)
[Receiver=3.1.2]
[bobkatz@localhost ~]$ 


Whereas previously when I was trying to run an rsync daemon using
simply sudo rsync --daemon, I was able to get the rsync
localhost.localdomain to respond with the name of the rsync module

It's a mess and I wish I could back out of it and start from scratch.
Also in the process I tried to create a xinet.d method of initiating
rsync and I fear a conflict. All I did was install xinetd and create
some config files but I can try to back out of that if you think it's
creating a conflict. 

I repeat, it's a mess....  I don't know where to start debugging at
this point. I'm so sorry,


Bob
