Greetings. I have been receiving a very frustrating error while following this tutorial. I was wondering if anyone who has gone through this tutorial has an inclination as to what is going on. I am stumped. I am able to successfully test and execute both the manual and weekly backup sets, but not daily! Here is the error it spits at me when i attempt: Code: localhost:~#rsyncbackup -x /etc/rsyncbackup -vv -d -s daily Code: PATH DIR:/etc/rsyncbackup/ LOG DIR:/etc/rsyncbackup/logs CONFIG_FILE:/etc/rsyncbackup/config.conf SOURCE FILE:/etc/rsyncbackup/sources.conf DESTS_FILE:/etc/rsyncbackup/destinations.conf BACKUPSET_FILE:/etc/rsyncbackup/backupset.conf BACKUPSET:daily Backup set 1 logs to store_logs Source : logs Source dir : [local] /var/log Source opts : Source cond : true Destination : store_logs [COLOR="Red"]Destination dir : [ERROR]: Unknown destination type, should be file or local![/COLOR] Destination opts: Destination cond: Config options : --stats --progress --links --hard-links --times --recursive --perms --owner --group --compress --backup Backupset opts : true All options : --stats --progress --links --hard-links --times --recursive --perms --owner --group --compress --backup All conditions : true true solarnix:/etc/rsyncbackup# nano config.conf solarnix:/etc/rsyncbackup# rsyncbackup -x /etc/rsyncbackup -vv -d -s daily PATH DIR:/etc/rsyncbackup/ LOG DIR:/etc/rsyncbackup/logs CONFIG_FILE:/etc/rsyncbackup/config.conf SOURCE FILE:/etc/rsyncbackup/sources.conf DESTS_FILE:/etc/rsyncbackup/destinations.conf BACKUPSET_FILE:/etc/rsyncbackup/backupset.conf BACKUPSET:daily Backup set 1 logs to store_logs Source : logs Source dir : [local] /var/log Source opts : Source cond : true Destination : store_logs [COLOR="Red"]Destination dir : [ERROR]: Unknown destination type, should be file or local![/COLOR] Destination opts: Destination cond: Config options : --stats --progress --links --hard-links --times --recursive --perms --owner --group --compress --backup Backupset opts : true All options : --stats --progress --links --hard-links --times --recursive --perms --owner --group --compress --backup All conditions : true true Here are my config files, exactly as they are at the time of error.

I have checked and double checked and all destination directories are correct. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!!
Just looking over your /etc/rsyncbackup/destinations.conf file, it looks like you missed a colon after the ssh[key=id_rsa,incremental=7,tag=increment] part (compare your first line to your second line). After that, you should be good to go.
