[Linux] RDIFF connection Issues

[MayContainVennom]

Hello,
 
So after a few dozen hours of troubleshooting I am stil at a loss. I am setting up a backup system from a local system to a remote server, I have all the users configured and the account is succesully connecting to the server, the only issue I am facing right now is when I attempt to run a backup it brings up the following error:

Fatal Error: Truncated header string (problem probably originated remotely)Couldn't start up the remote connection by executing    ssh -C kimsufi rdiff-backup --serverRemember that, under the default settings, rdiff-backup must beinstalled in the PATH on the remote system.  See the man page for moreinformation on this.  This message may also be displayed if the remoteversion of rdiff-backup is quite different from the local version (1.2.8).

After running echo $path I get:

/usr/local/sbin /usr/local/bin /usr/sbin /usr/bin /sbin /bin /usr/games

rdiff-backup is installed in /usr/bin:

 
I'm at a loss at this point, part of me is saying its straight up not connecting to the remote server but I can manually connect to it.

Some of the guides recomend that you don't give the account that access's the server a shell which basically stops RDIFF from running. I knew it would be something that simple
