Hi,
I want to disable windows suspend before starting backup by rsync.
My rsyncd.conf:
-----------------
 max connections = 6
 log file = /var/log/backup-service.log
 read only = false
 write only = false
 transfer logging = no
 list = false
 max verbosity = 6
 pre-xfer exec = powercfg /H off
[C]
 path = /cygdrive/c/
[D]
 path = /cygdrive/d/
-----------------
Unfortunately that didn't work. I get an error:
pre-xfer exec returned failure (256)
rsync error: requested action not supported (code 4)
I use rsync V3.0.4 from cygwin in Windows clients and backuppc on server
side.
Thanks for any hint
Matthias
