[BackupPC-users] rsyncd maximum file size on XP?

[Daryle D. <ddi...@fl...>]

Does anyone know what the file size restriction is for rsyncd on 
Windows XP? I have been using BackupPC for several months now and it 
has been working great, with one exception. I am backing up a XP 
computer using rsyncd with backuppc 2.1.2 on Fedora Core 3. The XP box 
has a 3Ghz Pentium4, 1GB RAM. The Fedora box has a 2Ghz Pentium 4 1Gb 
RAM. I occasionally get errors when very large files are being backed 
up, usually multi-gigabyte video files. The backup stops with the 
error "aborted by signal=ALRM". Is there a workaround? I have attached 
parts of the session log. I'd appreciate any ideas, and thanks to the 
creators for the great program!
