Hello Jeffrey,
Thanks for your reply!
I tried your solution, but unfortunately I got an error message.
This is what I did:
I sshed successfully to my backuppc server.
Then I ran the following command:
/usr/share/backuppc/bin$ ./BackupPC_serverMesg backup <HOSTIP> <HOSTNAME> 1
(Where <HOSTIP> is the ip-address of my host and <HOSTNAME> is the name of my
host)
This resulted in the following error:
Wrong user: my userid is <uid (number)>, instead of <uid (number)> (backuppc)
BackupPC::Lib->new failed
Then I tried to login as backuppc, but this failed. Probably because backuppc
is a HTTP user.
When I run the ./BackupPC_serverMesg backup <HOSTIP> <HOSTNAME> 1 command
locally on the backuppc server,
then I get the same error message.
FYI: I've got /usr/bin/sperl5.8.8
So perl should be installed with setuid emulation.
Can you tell me what I could do to make "./BackupPC_serverMesg backup <HOSTIP>
<HOSTNAME> 1" working?
Or do you know a total other solution to reach the situation that I desire?
Thnx,
Wim

How is that easier than just sending the single line:
BackupPC_serverMsg backup HOSTIP HOST 0/1
You will need to have ssh connection or vpn anyway if you are
remote.
