Thank you for your reply. I checked in to it, and determined that there isn't anything being output by logging in to the backuppc system and "su backuppc" then "ssh r...@cpanel": [backu...@backuppc ~]$ ssh r...@cpanel Last login: Sat Sep 26 16:08:46 2009 from backuppc r...@cpanel [~]# However, I did find that /etc/motd existed and was empty. I deleted it to see what would happen on the next backup cycle. SSHing into the client system under a normal user also does not result in any MOTD's or warning messages. - Nick ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Let Crystal Reports handle the reporting - Free Crystal Reports 2008 30-Day trial.
