Post Lost Connection 
hello all, I'm starting to use rdiff-backup between two servers, but I received this error when I run the command:
rdiff-backup - force - terminal-verbosity 6 xxx < at > server: / data / restore / sinc2/arquivos /

"Fatal Error: Lost connection to the remote system"

after making several files.
I am using centos 5.5 X64 with rdiff-backup 1.2.8.

ideas.
Excuse my English, thanks.

Try running tcpdump and seeing what happens, and check
/var/log/messsages or equiv on both systems.

Is the network between flaky or reliable?

I will check, but just used rsync and it worked, I believe that is not network. Thank you so far

rsync is very resistant to network flakiness and rdiff-backup is very
sensitive to it.

Second that.

I believe that a local rdiff, followed by an rsync to a remote destination might be the most resilient solution.

destination might be the most resilient solution.

That is what we do at our company and what I do personally. Works mostly
flawlessly. Although it means you have to provide double the storage (one
local and one remote) your origin files take up. But these days (slow)
storage is so cheap that I believe this should not matter much.

Thanks Greg, I'm trying another way, but now appears to me another error: segmentation fault, sorry rdiffbackup with the practice. Smile

I also have another server where it works, but I wanted to delete all folders .trashed in homes of the users, I tried several ways but always comes in sync, if I put the full pathworks. But all my users have their trash.
Anyone know how to expand my exclusion?

thanks
