Regards, Paul PS Remember, in the mid 80's SUN said The network IS the computer Thanks Paul, I'd forgotten I'd set up NFS to share the pages I wanted to sync. The reason I'm doing this is originally I had weewx with weewx-sdr running outside on a Pi fitted inside an old security camera that was capturing data using a cheap DVB-T USB stick. This would occasionally stop receiving data from one sensor so I upgraded to a Nooelec RTL-SDR v5. While I was finding time to replace the DVB-T stick I ran weewx on my server with the Nooelec. This was working, but I didn't want to open up port 80 on the server to the outside world. So I was copying the data over to the Raspberry Pi which did have an outside connection. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "weewx-user" group.

Set your server to 127.0.0.1 and rsync-over-ssh to yourself. Just follow the same procedure you'd do for setting up a remote system. You need a /root/.ssh/config file and the public key you use should be in /root/.ssh/authorized_keys on the weewx system.

[weewx-user] Re: RSync using NFS
Well...not exactly. I didn't look to see what weewx does with the empty server in the config, but either way rsync still works over ssh, which isn't nfs. Just straight using nfs, you soft link could link between your weewx directory and your destination on the other machine. Or you can set up passwordless ssh so that rsync works. ssh uses keys, and at least one (.pub) needs to be on the remote end. What problem are you trying to solve? Some more clear details would get you a better answer.
