mcncyo.homeip.net is the backup server
mychristiannetwork.com is the main server
Can someone tell me on what side needs what to make this work.
rsync works fine except it keeps asking for a password.
A tiny bit of trivia for you. Ssh's key authentication will not work if either the "authorized_keys" file, or the .ssh directory it's in, are world readable or executable. I also think they have to be owned by the user doing the authentication.
