This bug is quite old, but I stumbled on a broken backuppc (refusing backup due to ping) after upgrading the backup server. Backuppc now has version 3.3.0 (I am even not sure that this has changed during the upgrade that broke the backup).
ping6 hostname failed, but ping succeeded. The ping6 configuration was empty, i just added /bin/ping (because /bin/ping6 didn't work). Now backup seems to work again. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/782890 Title: no ping response on all hosts after upgrade To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/backuppc/+bug/782890/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
