[BackupPC-users] backuppc and excluding ip ranges?

2011-11-10 Thread SSzretter 
I am wondering if it's possible already, or how difficult it might be to
change the code for backuppc to allow it to skip a machine if it is not in
a certain subnet mask.

In my network, I have multiple sites.   Some of the sites have slow T1
connections between them, so I have backuppc servers at them to back up
directly on the LAN.

This works great, but some of the machines (windows) are laptops, and
people sometimes bring the laptop to another location.

All these locations are tied together, so backuppc can still see (ping) the
laptop even though it's in another building.

The only real difference is that machine will pick up a dhcp address for
that building.   The address will be in a different subnet, for example,
 192.168.2.x instead of 192.168.1.x.

It would be great if a flag could be set to tell backuppc to only backup a
machine if it is in a specific subnet range (192.168.2.x) and to skip it if
not.

Is this already possible, or where might a change be made in the code for
something like that?

Re: [BackupPC-users] NT_STATUS_BAD_NETWORK_NAME after virtualizing

2011-11-02 Thread SSzretter 
No, the physical machine has been powered down.   Also, the virtual machine
works fine in all other ways - I can for example remote desktop to it using
it's netbios name, connect to it's shares using it's netbios name, etc.

  Any ideas?

 Is the physical machine still on the network with the same netbios
 name - or was it when you booted the VM?  Netbios doesn't allow
 duplicate names on the network.

[BackupPC-users] excluding files from backup

2011-09-07 Thread SSzretter 
So what is the proper syntax for excluding files backed up via smb from a 
windows box (folders too)?
I have this currently, and I have tried adding a wildcard   '/WINDOWS/*' , no 
difference  :

$Conf{BackupFilesExclude} = { 
  '*' = [ 
'/Documents and Settings/*/Local Settings/Temporary Internet Files/', 
'/Documents and Settings/*/Local Settings/Temp/', 
'/Documents and Settings/*/NTUSER.DAT', 
'/Documents and Settings/*/ntuser.dat.LOG', 
'/Documents and Settings/*/Local Settings/Application 
Data/Microsoft/Windows/UsrClass.dat', 
'/Documents and Settings/*/Local Settings/Application 
Data/Microsoft/Windows/UsrClass.dat.LOG', 
'/Documents and Settings/*/Local Settings/Application 
Data/Mozilla/Firefox/Profiles/*/Cache/', 
'/Documents and Settings/*/Local Settings/Application 
Data/Mozilla/Firefox/Profiles/*/OfflineCache/', 
'/Documents and Settings/*/Recent/', 
'*.lock', 
'Thumbs.db', 
'IconCache.db', 
'Cache', 
'cache', 
'/WINDOWS/', 
'/RECYCLER/', 
'/MSOCache/', 
'/System Volume Information/', 
'/AUTOEXEC.BAT', 
'/BOOTSECT.BAK', 
'/CONFIG.SYS', 
'/hiberfil.sys', 
'/pagefile.sys', 
'/WINNT/' 
  ] 
};

I found this thread which seems to imply my slashes need to go the other way ?? 
   like  '\WINDOWS\'  ??

http://www.backupcentral.com/phpBB2/two-way-mirrors-of-external-mailing-lists-3/backuppc-21/backupfilesexclude-via-smb-for-windows-shares-solved-90560/

This thread has similar information:
http://www.mail-archive.com/backuppc-users@lists.sourceforge.net/msg08889.html

SO, what IS the proper way to define excludes so it's not going to back up the 
windows folder and similar?

You need to not have set BackupFilesOnly. What does your log file say?
