Hi Brian,
I'm currently backing up about 12 Windows Server 2003 boxes using rsyncd for
windows from the backuppc download page. I do entire backups of the systems
using a shadow copies of each drive. This allows me to reload the entire state
of the server as it was from the last incremental.
Is it possible copy the contents of the backup directory to an external USB
hard drive to take offsite? Of course the external USB Hard drive will need
sufficient disk space to copy the contents over, but are there any other
issues?
I envision the process to be:
1. Connect the External USB Ha
I've been backing up clients very well since I got BackupPC configured
correctly for my environment. The clients are either Windows XP or Windows
2000 PC's. Using rsyncd works very well on these clients.
How does it work on a Windows 2003 Standard Server? I'd like to begin
backing up the data

If I backup one drive of a computer, all is A-OK. If I try to backup a computer
with multiple drives, I get an error saying "tree connect failed:
NT_STATUS_BAD_NETWORK_NAME". I tried separating them like this 'C$, D$, W$'.
The error log is shown below:

Check the ownership of the host's directory and ensure that the user
'backuppc' has full access to both the directory and it

One reasonable approach is to disable the backup from the old names,
and to add the new ones as new hosts. It is not a great solution, but
could work.

"doesn't work" in what way? I seem to recall that that is all I did when I
renamed a server. Did you reload the BackupPC configuration file after the
rename?

Hi all,
We use Backuppc as our backup solution for our servers.
Now we are in the midst of a server move / rename / function change of
many servers.
How can I just rename the host in Backuppc without losing my backups?
Renaming it in the hosts file and renaming it's directory doesn't work.

Don't use the root account to login. Use an ordinary user account, and
allow that account to run
I've been trying to figure out a good way of increasing the security
related to my backuppc ssh keys. I'm using rsync to backup Linux
machines over the internet, and backuppc is given root access to those
machines. I don't like allowing ssh access to root and I'm trying to

When I upgraded from 2.x to 3.0 there were no problems with BackupPC
itself.
I needed to update to a current perl version, and
i'm getting this error when backing up files from windows using rsync. I've made
a little rearch and it seems that this problem lies within cygwin. There seems
to be a patch available that resolves this issue if you recompile the cygwin.dll
including this patch. However this is a bit nasty approach

In the log file will be the exact ssh command that BackupPC tried to run
(as user backuppc). Try running that command interactively as the backuppc
user and see if you get an error. If you do, that's
