Some more additional info. my thought process was to setup rsync in unraid box as a server and deltacopy as client running in various PC's. I will then schedule backup run using deltacopy. But right now I am trying to test rsync @ unRaid and make sure it is setup correctly at the server end.

 

1. my rsyncd.conf is setup in /boot/custom/etc and /etc as described in the forum topic

 

uid            = root

gid            = root

use chroot      = no

max connections = 4

pid file        = /var/run/rsyncd.pid

timeout        = 600

log file        = /var/log/rsyncd.log

 

[backup]

 

path      = /mnt/disk1/backup 

comment  = /mnt muthu files   

read only = FALSE

list      = yes

 

2. my S20-init.rsyncd file stored in /boot/custom/etc/rc.d/

 

#!/bin/bash

 

if ! grep ^rsync /etc/inetd.conf > /dev/null ; then

cat <<-EOF >> /etc/inetd.conf

rsync  stream  tcp    nowait  root    /usr/sbin/tcpd  /usr/bin/rsync --daemon

EOF

read PID < /var/run/inetd.pid

kill -1 ${PID}

fi

 

cp /boot/custom/etc/rsyncd.conf /etc/rsyncd.conf

 

3. Go Script I added a line

/boot/custom/etc/rc.d/s20-init.rsyncd

 

Now I tried to check running rsync @ unRaid I am getting the above error. your direction is appreciated.

[Rsync errors using Delta copy]

Newbie here.

 

Thanks for the Great forum and unRaid community , I was able to setup my unRaid server and is working great. Intial setup is small 2X2TB Drive and a 2TB parity drive. I plan to expand later once initial kinks are resolved.. Past few days I have been trying to setup rsync so that i can backup all my PC's( 1 PC and 2 Laptops) important files to unRaid server everyday. All my PC's are either win 64 machines or Vista. Installed Delta copy in all these machines.

 

I read every topic on rsync in this forum(Tibbar-WeeboTech) but still rsync is not working in my setup. I have setup rsyncd.conf file and s20-init.rsyncd file as well as described.

 

Here is the error that I am getting. I am complete noob to linux. so please help me.

 

root@Tower:/mnt/disk1/backup# /usr/bin/rsync rsync://Tower/
