Hi,
Just wanted to share this interesting test result I found about
switching the ssh cipher. I am running the 3.0.0 beta3 in production on
a fairly small centos4 server (basic spec but with a 1.5TB raid5 setup)
and backing up a variety of windows, linux and solaris across a 100mbit
lan.

Hi all,
I am very new to backupPC - and I like it more more and more every day. ;-)
I made a direcory with four 1MB files and some smaller text files for
test purposes.
Today, I tried some error cases and killed the rsync process on my
client machine while syncing with xfermethod=rsync. After kil

Hello!
Here are the scripts I use to manage the removable hard drive media used
to store daily archives of my backup servers via the GUI, instead of
from the command line. Briefly, the system is set up like this:
BackupPC's pool is stored on a large internal hard drive. Every day at

You could modify the code to use the date in the file name.

Hello!
I was wondering if there will be a new release of the BackupPC 3 code?
I know that there was at least one change (the permissions on web-edited
files), and at least one bug (the GUI brings up the oldest log file when
you click on the LOG link) that I am specifically interested in.

Hi,
You can use in per-pc config.pl, the parameter
$Conf{DumpPostUserCmd} = '/usr/local/BackupPC/bin/BackupNotify $user $xferOK
$host $type $client $hostIP ';
the script BackupNotify is something like that :
#!/usr/bin/perl
#
#
# $user $xferOK $host $type
#
$mailprog = '/usr/l
23 matches
