I have a couple clients backup nightly over the internet.
I seem to be doubting if the backups are actually being completed successfully.
Backuppc tells me they are, but the reason im questioning is because
it is suppose

I use rsyncd to backup my (Windows) clients.
The first backup of each client needs a really long time.
Would it be faster if I use smb or tar for the initial backup?
Is it possible to switch back to rsyncd after this initial backup?
Would I maintained all the benefits of rsyncd starting with the 2

That was a great answer. The server is rebooting every morning at 7:00. I
will see what I can find out from that.

check any log files you find in /var/log too! messages is a good one to
start with, but depending on the
exact configuration, you might find other log files there too.

Run the command dmesg (first, "man dmesg" so you know what this command
does) and take a look at the output. This is the bootup message and
should be replicated in /var/log/messages.

I've got one Vista server that's sending back a strange smb error:
"protocol negotiation failed"
I've tried turning the local firewall off with the same result.
SMB version is 3.0.23.

Thanks.

Which logs should I check? And wha
Not to be simplistic, but have you checked the server's logs?
PS. It's best to compose a new message rather than just change the subject
in an existing thread.

Hi all:
Having a problem with backuppc running over ssh with rsync.
I am backing up a 38GB file daily (database dump). There were some
changes on the database server, so I started a new full dump. After
two days (40+ hours) it had still not completed. This is over a GB
network link. I restarted t
Almost every morning, I come into the server room and find that my BackupPC
server has been rebooted. I log it in and leave it logged in every day. When
I get back in the morning, the login screen is there.
Does anyone have any explanations as to why? We are running on Fedora Core
9. We are not r
