[rdiff-backup-users] rdiff keyerror

[Bart Janssens]

Hello,

When trying to get rdiff-backup to run I get the following error.
The setup looks like this:

+---------+   utserver   +---------+
| host 01 |  ==========> | host 02 |
+---------+              +---------+

host 01/utserver (ubuntu):
Linux 3.2.0-48-generic #74-Ubuntu SMP Thu Jun 6 19:43:26 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 
x86_64 GNU/Linux
rdiff-backup 1.2.8-7
python-pyxattr 0.5.0-3ubuntu1
python-pylibacl 0.5.0-3ubuntu1

host 02 (centos):
Linux 2.6.32-431.el6.x86_64 #1 SMP Fri Nov 22 03:15:09 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 
x86_64 GNU/Linux
rdiff-backup.x86_64 1.2.8-5.el6
pyxattr.x86_64 0.5.0-1.el6
pylibacl.x86_64 0.5.0-1.el6

The setup works like this:
I have all the config for rdiff on the utserver. This one can ssh to the hosts.
It's setup like this as only the utserver can connect to the host02.

Any clues to what I am doing wrong?
