All,
Following David's excellent comment about backups by rsync (pasted below),
I've been keeping copies of /oldroot/mnt/asturw. It's a simple, painless
backup procedure.
I'm now replacing a production Soekris net5501 with a shiny new Jetway
NF99FL-525. Presuming I start by installing the Generic i586 (VGA) image on
the Jetway, is it permissible to simply use ssh to copy the Soekris' asturw
file tree to the new machine? If so, this would be a brain-dead simple way
to migrate to the different hardware. Or are there differences between the
two asturws that will cause pain and agony?
Thanks for any thoughts, recommendations, or advice.
Dan

I actually do a pull from a server (actually a ReadyNAS box) for my AstLinux
backup... rsync over ssh with certificates so no userid/password. The
remote server has an hourly cron job that runs the rsync....
#!/bin/bash
rsync -avz -e "ssh -p<your-ssh-port>"
root@<your-pbx-url>:/oldroot/mnt/asturw /c/home/david/PBXbackup
This way there is no dependency on anything running on the Astlinux box.
Something similar would work to pull off call recordings for safe storage.
