I am trying to get going BackupPC on a fedora 12 64 bit machine as the server. I have got Apache running asn can see the test page. I can log on to the BackupPC web page at http://127.0.0.1/BackupPC but that is about as far as it goes.
The web page does not have anything on it that I can configure, or get any useful information on. There are a number of menu item missing Admin options, LOG file. Old Logs, Email summary, Config file, Host file, Current queues are all missing. This according to the articel I have showing a BackupPC web page sceen. I have edited the /etc/hosts file to include the localhost and the backupserver IP address. I have also added these to the /etc/BackupPc/hosts file. The web page that is displayed not only has the missing menu items but the colour of th highlighted menu item is blue not green as in the typical pictures I have. I have tried to use the article Back Up linux and Windows systems with backupPC from howtoforge as the basis. As I indicated I can get teh web page up but can not do anything. Clearly I have missed something. Can anyone assist me to get this going. Is there a definative article somewhere that sets up BackupPC on Fedora 12? Have tried disabling the fire wall and SElinux with no change. Below is the basic procedure I followed to get the the point in the original post. checked the: /etc/httpd/cond.f/BackupPC changed allow 127.0.0.1 to allow 127.0.0.1 192.xxx.xxx.1/24 set the password for apache users #htpasswd -c /etc/BackupPC/apache.users backuppc password xxxxxx added to DNS the machines 192.xxx.xxx.xxx backup Backup server 192.xxx.xxx.xxx...Home machine to be backed up edited the /etc/BackupPC/hosts Home 0 XYZ also tried 192.xxx.xxx.xxx. 0 XYZ left /etc/BackupPC/config.pl as standard with a view to modifing it later to account of he foldrs to be backed up. # /etc/init.d/BackupPC restart # service BackupPC start #service httpd restart Checked the services to make sure these are running. Set up httpd to start each time chkconfig httpd on If I do a nmblookup -A 192.xxx.xxx.xxx. (either of the IP address above) I get a message to say no reply from 192.xxx.xxx.xxx I can ping the IP addresses ok. I clearly have missed some thing. Do I have to change permissions some here, change something in the /etc/BackupPC/config.pl file. Anything the the users and grups to change? Would be greatful if I could be pointed in the right direction.
