Hm. Well I thought I found the problem (I couldn't ssh to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
without getting a password prompt) but after I fixed that the problem
still remained. Ratz!
Here's the restorecmd:
$Conf{TarClientRestoreCmd} = '$sshPath -q -x -l root $host /usr/bin/env
LC_ALL=C $tarPath -x -p --numeric-owner --same-owner -v -f - -C $shareName+';
Now I've been going through some of the variables.. sshpath is set in
localhost.pl:
$Conf{SshPath} = '/usr/bin/ssh -p 1234';
(yes we run sshd on another port)
$tarPath is just /bin/tar as usual.. $host is localhost..
Don't see the error yet..
