[rdiff-backup-users] Backup from OSX to Win

[Thanos Diacakis]

Hi all,

I am trying to backup from OSX (latest) to Windows.  rdiff-backup  
1.2.5 installed on either end.  The ssh configuration was tested by  
running "rdiff-backup --version" over the pipe and getting back only a  
single line.  The windows rdiff-backup is using the 1.2.5 executable  
with the VC redist.

Then using this command:

rdiff-backup -v9 --test-server --remote-schema 'ssh -q -F ~/Settings/ 
ssh/ssh-home-conf2 my.windows.box.here.net -p 60666 %s'   'z:\\rdiff- 
backup.exe --server'::/foo

... and it keeps dying with the trace below.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Thanos
