I noticed when setting up my backuppc install that Windows clients with
rsyncd software worked OK. A linux box did not. In the log file was the
error message auth required, but service is open/insecure.
I double-checked the settings, and then tried a simple command-line
rsync. I was prompt
Good morning,
I'm having an odd problem. I believe it's filesystem related on the
backup target machine, but I can't find it.
Here's the thing. The target, marked as p01 below, had a severe
filesystem corruption. I reinstalled the OS, and fixed everything I
could find. There were a l

If you have sufficient disk space, will it work to copy the per-pc
directories from one or a few hosts to a different backuppc server
without trying to merge anything in the pool? That is, will new
backups of these hosts be pooled normally and the unpooled copies go
away when they expire? I'
Did you change the $TopDIR entry in the config file? you need to have it

I'll start with the general caveat that it's best to let the backup software
decide when things should be backed up. That said, it sounds like you have a
situation where it really is best to force backups t

Did you run configure.pl on that source before copying that init.d
script? I believe the configure.pl script modifies the init.d script
as it injects the username you specify.

hallo,
is there someone who could send me a /etc/init.d/backuppc script file for

If you have a hug
The every other day blackout is because I want to backup one server at a
time because we are sending lots of data over a small internet pipe.
Backing up both servers at the same time takes forever, so I do one
server one day, another server the next.
So if I run a manual backup at 7:00PM it should

Hi,
my pool size is displayed 0.00GB (see below), but everythings seems to
work perfectly: I couldn't find any linking errors in the logs,
permissions checked, and
du -sh /home/RAID5/backuppc/cpool/ gives me 639G, so it's not exactly

6:00 PM. In this particular issue the blackout defines don'
