I think it tries to interpret the ascii value of the text as an rsync version number and logs it as a mismatch. So not exactly a 'user friendly' error message, and since backuppc normally runs unattended you may not find out about it until several days have passed - and then only if your email setup works. But,if it only displays on interactive logins (where ssh doesn't pass a command) it should be OK. -- Les Mikesell lesmikesell at gmail.com
