[Duplicity-talk] Cannot get duplicity work with rsync at ADrive

[Mikhail Edoshin]

Hello all,

I'm trying to get duplicity to work with my ADrive account via rsync (on 
Cygwin), but somehow I cannot manage to do this. A raw rsync connection 
works file:

  rsync -a mydir address@hidden@rsync.adrive.com:backup

It creates the 'backup' directory there and puts 'mydir' in it. With 
duplicity, however, I keep running into errors. First, I get an error 
with this URL:

  duplicity mydir rsync://address@hidden@rsync.adrive.com:backup

duplicity refuses immediately with:

InvalidBackendURL: Syntax error (port) in: 
rsync://address@hidden@rsync.adrive.com:backup ATrue BNone 
address@hidden@rsync.adrive.com:backup

I see that duplicity man page has a different format for URLs (there 
must be two colons before the directory), so I try this:

  duplicity mydir rsync://address@hidden@rsync.adrive.com::backup

This one fails with timeout:

Running 'rsync rsync.adrive.com::backup/' failed with code 10 (attempt #1)
Error is: rsync: failed to connect to rsync.adrive.com (65.49.56.50): 
Connection timed out (116)
rsync error: error in socket IO (code 10) at 
/home/lapo/package/rsync-3.0.9-1 /src/rsync-3.0.9/clientserver.c(122) 
[Receiver=3.0.9]

I then try it with an explicit port (ADrive uses SSH port 22):

  duplicity mydir rsync://address@hidden@rsync.adrive.com:22::backup

This one seems to connect, but then fails because of unexpected response:

Running 'rsync --port=22 rsync.adrive.com::backup/' failed with code 5 
(attempt #1)
Error is:
rsync: server sent "SSH-2.0-OpenSSH_6.0p1 Debian-4" rather than greeting
rsync error: error starting client-server protocol (code 5) at 
/home/lapo/package/rsync-3.0.9-1/src/rsync-3.0.9/main.c(1516) 
[Receiver=3.0.9]

I don't know what to try next :) Please help.
