Re: [BackupPC-users] tree connect failed: NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED

2011-05-14 Thread Steven Johnson

I am using the domain admin account to access this share. All other machines 
can access the share using these credentials.

 Hi,
 
 first of all, please avoid HTML mail to mailing lists at all costs. Thank you.

 Yes, but you don't say as which user, which is the whole point.
 
[...]
I doubt its a credentials problem since I get a completely
different error when I deliberately enter incorrect creds (LOGON 
FAILURE).
 
 Just to make what others have already written overclear:
 
 NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE = invalid user/pass combination (user does not exist
   or password incorrect)
 NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED = user/pass combination valid, but authenticated user
   has no access
 
 Though, according to what Timothy writes, the matter is more complicated.
 
 Hope that helps.
 
 Regards,
 Holger

[BackupPC-users] Exclude files from share and its subfolders

2011-05-14 Thread Steven Johnson

Greetings,
I've excluded a few files and folders from being backed up but i would like to 
exclude certain files (e.g. *.bak files and /.AppleDB folders from all 
subfolders under the main share. I'm using Rsyncd, btw. Thanks in advance.

Myself as well. Although the math will be the same in my case (since I
rarely run backups manually), it's a bit weird.

well, why don't you do that?

Assuming your statement was meant as a question and I'm guessing the correct
question(s), you should either

1.) look at the rsync man page for the syntax of rsync excludes (BackupPC
uses the excludes verbatim and in the order you specify them, in case
you were wondering),
2.) look at the main config file for how to make excludes apply to a certain
share, or
3.) rest assured that that is possible.

I *could* quote the man page and config file verbatim, but that's unlikely
to help you. If you don't understand part of the explanation in these
sources, you're going to have to be more specific about what you don't
understand. You're unlikely to find anyone here prepared to rephrase both
of these documents in the hope of maybe making one point more clear for
you.

Hope that helps.

Regards,
Holger

P.S.: I've got a spare ) and you seem to be missing one. Take mine.

Re: [BackupPC-users] Question about the Server Status cgi page

  Hi Everyone,
  
  I've been running backuppc for a while now, and have been wondering
  about the backuppc Server Status web page.
  
  It's always shows the same values:
  
  The servers PID is 15721, on host rabbit, version 3.1.0, started at 4/4
  13:49.
  
 snip/ 
  
  And the RDD graph shows nothing of the BackupPC Pool Size for both 4
  weeks and 52 weeks.
  
  I'm wondering what I'm missing here.. how come this information isn't
  updating?
  
  Just to make sure, the setup I have is non standard in that my $topDir
  points to the mounted NAS where all backups go.
  
  The file system under $topDir looks as you'd expect when looking in
  the /usr/lib/backuppc directory.
  
  Am I missing a configuration setting to tell it where to look for where
  hte backups are stored?
  
  
  
  Thanks
  
  Peter.
 Moving of $TopDir is an critical task. There are a lot of threads about 
 this.
 Much easier is to mount your NAS into /var/lib/backuppc.
 However - you are sure the status page always displays
 ...
 The servers PID is 15721, on host rabbit, version 3.1.0, started at 4/4
 13:49.
 
   * This status was generated at 5/9 20:38.
 ...
 If so, try restart backuppc or restart your server.


This is what it says today:

The servers PID is 15721, on host rabbit, version 3.1.0, started at 4/4
13:49.
  * This status was generated at 5/15 15:42.
  * The configuration was last loaded at 4/8 18:32.
  * PCs will be next queued at 5/15 16:00.


and this is what it says after restarting backuppc:

The servers PID is 21954, on host rabbit, version 3.1.0, started at 5/15
15:44.
  * This status was generated at 5/15 15:44.
  * The configuration was last loaded at 5/15 15:44.
  * PCs will be next queued at 5/15 16:00.


I take it though, that it's simply just better to mount the NAS
under /var/lib/backuppc?

Peter.
