Windows to Linux works fine with the native binary, Linux to Windows is where I'm having problems. Is there any way to start the native windows client as a server and back up to it? I've tried using SSH, and I can run the native Windows client (as opposed to the Cygwin version), but it complains when I try to specify the drive letter.
Tomorrow I'm going to try the BackupFromWindowsToLinux instructions, using a remote source and local destination. Hopefully I'll be able to script it so I can run a script from the Linux source and have the Windows destination initiate the rdiff-backup sequence with the native rdiff-backup binary. If I get it working smoothly, I'll make a BackupFromLinuxToWindows page on the wiki. - Austin On Wed, Jan 14, 2009 at 10:45 PM, Andrew Ferguson <[email protected]>wrote: > On Jan 14, 2009, at 10:20 PM, Austin Roberts wrote: > >> I've tried both versions.
