Ho-lee crap, this is fantastic. Everything seems to work. I find though that if I stop myth -and- mysql, I cannot export the database, so I only stop Myth. It's the only thing using the database anyway, in my case. Well it's been 12 hours and I'm still doing my first HTPC data transfer, so not all commands are tested (untested==#), but I am confident they will work. I'm donating my (weekly) cron script here in case it helps someone. (below) I have four systems: hex - work laptop droog - HTPC with a 4TB btrfs raid0 array on /home and 500GB raptor on / slepnir - backup server in a cube case out in the garage (in case of theft or fire) with a SuperMicro 5 disk hot-swap cage, 6TB so far. (WD Green 2TB now $80 with rebate!) phone - Android Nexus One with 16GB SD The backup server has SSH credentials on the other systems, but only the work laptop can ssh to it (limited by Shorewall). The backup server will also handle security cameras and will presumably dnat a port to the HTPC, which will serve it to the WAN on SSH (reverse tunnel) so I can get motion notifications and video on my phone. (ZoneMinder) The HTPC is the only system allowed to present anything to the WAN as it has nothing sensitive, and -that- will be on a subnet. Maybe I can limit it to my phone's IP. I do have a (disused) WindowsXP partition, but unsure how to back that up. Maybe ssh with a dd command.
