Thank you for that clarity, Richard.
The slight differences is how a user does this or that between the two
distros (CentOS and Debian/Ubuntu) elude me at times. For give my
ignorance, I have not used CentOS much over the years.
The "systemctl status" for both "backuppc" and "httpd" show them both
"active (running)" but "http://ipaddress/BackupPC/"; still yields "Unable
to Connect" on the webpage.
Checked "firewalld" and added http access.
Now, "http://ipaddress/BackupPC/"; yields "Forbidden You don't have
permission to access /BackupPC/ on this server."
Following the README.fedora I set backuppc user for web access but I am
guessing this, once again, is the different between the two distros and
I do not remember what to do? Is it permission issues between BackupPC
and Apache? Or is it user permissions?
Any thoughts?
