What's happening now here?

[Boniforti Flavio]

Hello list.

I'm doing nightly syncs over SSH with rsnapshot, and now rsync gives me
strange errors, like:

rsync: failed to connect to localhost: Connection refused (111)
rsync error: error in socket IO (code 10) at clientserver.c(122)
[receiver=3.0.3]
------------------------------------------------------------------------
----
rsnapshot encountered an error! The program was invoked with these
options:
/usr/bin/rsnapshot -c /root/ssh-omv.conf daily
------------------------------------------------------------------------
----
ERROR: /usr/bin/rsync returned 10 while processing localhost::profilo/

The command-line statement is:

ssh -f administrator at remotehost.com -L 8874:127.0.0.1:873 sleep 10;
rsnapshot -c /root/ssh-omv.conf daily > /var/log/rsnapshot/OMV-$(date
+%Y%m%d-%H%M).log

>From my Linux server (Debian Lenny) I'm opening an SSH tunnel and then
start rsnapshot over it. The remote computer is a Windows 2003 SBS
Server, on which I'm running copssh and cwrsync server, where in the
rsyncd.conf only two "modules" are listed:

use chroot = false
strict modes = false
hosts allow = 127.0.0.1
log file = rsyncd.log

# Module definitions
# Remember cygwin naming conventions : c:\work becomes /cygwin/c/work
#
[data]
path = /cygdrive/d/data
read only = true
transfer logging = yes

[profilo]
path = /cygdrive/d/Profilo
read only = true
transfer logging = yes

In the ssh-omv.conf file I have in the end:

backup  localhost::data/        data/
backup  localhost::profilo/     profilo/

The logfile shows:

/usr/bin/rsync -rtzv --port=8874 --delete --ignore-errors --numeric-ids
\
    --delete-excluded --stats --progress localhost::data/ \
    /mnt/remote/Omv/daily.0/data/
receiving incremental file list

The strange thing is that if I comment the "data" backup line in the
rsnapshot configuration, the "profile" module gets backed up!
What may be happening?

Thanks in advance,
