[Wylug-help] Backing up to remote host - revisited

[Anne Wilson]

A few weeks ago I wrote about my attempts to use rsync across a LAN.  The 
script appeared to start working, then froze, and I couldn't find out why.  
Several people tried to help me, on and off-list but without success, so it 
went on the back-burner, but not forgotten.

Having read a good review of Luckbackup I decided to try that today.  I have 
set up one job, with three data sets.  All have the same configuration to 
access the remote host using password-protected keys.  Two of the data sets 
work in the dry run, and the third one fails.  I still can't see the 
difference.  Here's what I see:

=====================================

execution of task : Photos, starting

ssh: connect to host 102.168.0.40 port 22: Connection timed out 

rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (0 bytes received so far) [sender] rsync 
error: unexplained error (code 255) at io.c(601) [sender=3.0.7] 
execution of task : Photos, finished =====================================

Such information as I've found on the web suggests that it is an 
authentication problem, yet I own all three of the destination directories, 
and all three have the same perms set.

Any ideas?
