Backup FULL Linux server from master root folder issue

Hey guys

Just purchased acrosync and trying to backup my linux server with incremental snapshots to my windows pc. If anything bad goes down, I have master copies of the server backup to restore.

However, I am having issues backing up the server with the "download" option, instead of sync. When typing in the / folder as remote directory, choosing "download' as sync mode and "create incremental snapshots" enabled, every time I try to back up the server, it gives me this error

"2018/02/25 00:39:0: rsync: symlink "/root/" -> "2018-0225-00" failed: No such file.


I cannot get the software to begin doing incremental backups of the entire servers master root folder with the folders /var /usr etc. Login username is root. Am I doing this right? A bit confused.

Please advise, thanks.
