If you're under Linux, use a VPN, such as: https://www.wireguard.io/ ; under m$, duno (& don't care very much.) > > I think I could define my laptop ip (on my BackupPC server > > configuration) using my remote ip adress, but this wouldn't work > > when I come back home. This means you'll be obliged to reach your server through the VPN connection when in a home-home configuration; so your VPN MUST be able to connect like that and preferably not eating your CPU. And this won't work, even if you know by advance the IP where your laptop can be reached, unless you open a hole in the firewall &| adsl box/modem in the home that host you. > > What should I do to perform these backups from my server (located at > > home) to my laptop located either on my local network or remotely > > (on internet). Notice that if you usually backuppc@1600Z, you'd better already be connected at this particular time, unless you wanna shift it. Under m$, this should be the same, however it depends greatly on your user's permissions & groups, which can be quite a PITA and depends on your setup and user's type - notice m$ VPN almost all have large security problems. Other possibility: in case of breakdown, ask the nsa a copy taken from their last incursion ;-p) Jean-Yves ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ BackupPC-users mailing list BackupPC-users@lists.sourceforge.net List: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/backuppc-users Wiki: http://backuppc.wiki.sourceforge.net Project: http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/
