Hi Bob, If I understand the issue:
From the BackupPC server: ssh-keyscan -t rsa $remote_host >> ~backuppc/.ssh/known_hosts Or, you can just manually ssh into the remote host as the backuppc user: su -s /bin/bash backuppc ssh -l root $remote_host exit G On 01/02/2011 06:40 AM, Bob Wooden wrote: > I am setting up a newer BackupPC server for my home lan.
