I'll bet you have an Apache password issue. When BackupPC installed it
should have set up a username of backuppc and an 8 character long random
looking password. Every time I have run install it comes up with a screen
that gives you this password. This username and password is stored in a file
in the directory, I believe that the file is called htpasswd. This is an
Apache web server password. To set the password you need to do an htpasswd
command. You will find general instructions on using htpasswd with Apache
here:
http://www.apacheweek.com/features/userauth

I am sorry I do not remember where the htpasswd file is stored in the
directory structure.

Subject: [BackupPC-users] Installation on Fedora Core 5 login to CGI
pagetrouble.

I have previously (several months ago) installed Backuppc on Ubuntu.
This time I am trying to install it on K12LTSP 5 (Fedora Core 5)I
installed using yum. Then I edited config.pl and hosts the same way
the files on Ubuntu were set up. Next I tried to connect to the CGI
interface.
I typed http://localhost/BackupPC I was then presented with the
username and password screen. I can't get past it. I tried backuppc,
root my username (which defined in config.pl)
I tried setting adminusers to * also.
No joy. What should I do next?
