I am having a problem getting my files backed up to
the location I want
to from a WinXP client going to a Debian rsync server.
The following is sending asm/ to /home/robert/backup
folder.
rsync -avz /cygdrive/d/asm
robert at 192.168.1.102:backup/
My understanding of the rsync man page is that this is
supposed to send
asm/ to what the path that is defined in rsyncd.conf,
mine is defined
as /backup.
I have tried it another way with failed attempts and I
get the following error:
rsync -avz /cygdrive/d/asm 192.168.1.102::backup/
Password:
@ERROR: auth failed on module backup
rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (0 bytes
received so far) [sender]
rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code
12) at /home/lapo/packaging/tmp/rsync-2.6.3/io.c(359)
How do I make the asm/ folder go to 192.168.1.102's
/backup and
not /home/robert/backup?
Here is my configurataion:
rsyncd.conf:
log file = /var/log/rsync.log
[backup]
path = /backup
comment = Backup
list = yes
read only = no
auth users = robert
secrets file = /etc/rsyncpasswd
hosts allow = 192.168.1.100
rsync versions:
WinXP SP2: 2.6.3 (cygwin environment)
Debian 3.1: 2.6.5
Thanks
Robert
