Internet Client Speed Setting Ignored

Internet client ignores Internet speed setting. Tried setting the speed to 250 KBps both on the server with Individual client settings, and on the Client itself. In both cases, the setting is ignored and the client pushes the data at full speed. Is this a known issue? Using Windows client 1.4.10.

Is this forum not the correct place to ask for help with issues with UrBackup? It seems that all my posts where I report something not working are mostly ignored. I will be unable to pitch this software to my manager as a viable product for our clients, if I cannot get any reliable support for the software.

Last night I upgraded to urbackup Linux server version 1.4.12 and after the upgrade, restarted the service. It seems that restarting the service works to make the speed limit setting work:

  • Set the Internet speed,
  • wait for a few minutes to see if the setting kicks in,
  • restart the urbackup service,
  • check again, Internet backup now runs at the set speed.

So this problem exists in both versions 1.4.10 and 1.4.12.

UrBackup 1.4.x does not update the speed setting during backups. That could also cause the problem. This should be fixed with 2.0 now.
