Re: [BackupPC-users] Child exited prematurely

[Micha K. <mi...@ko...>]

Hi,

I guess you are using the rsync over ssh option to make backups?
 
it's quite hard to debug this, but 9 out of 10 times its the ssh / rsync connection that is failing. Login on the backuppc server, become the backuppc user and try to make an connection manualy via f.e. ssh

Met vriendelijke groet,

Micha Kersloot
