Hi,
I have backuppc running fine backing-up windows and mac machines, except one
mac. It fails in the first few minutes of the backup.
If I run the backup from the command line then it hangs - if I remove the
--server and the --sender switches and run the command it works fine.
Please
I move to another drive the backuppc root dir that contains these folders:
conf cpool log passwd pc perl_module pool trash
and now my status on the front page isn't updating:
* Pool file system was recently at 70% (7/13 02:07), today's max is 70%
(7/13 02:03) and yesterday's max w

Part of the reason I don't want to do this is that three drives are required in
order to have on offsite
I just found this gem:

I used command id to determine userid. Actually "id backuppc4afs", "id
502" and "su backuppc4afs -c id" gave the same results:
RArwjms04:bin root# id backuppc4afs
uid=502(backuppc4afs) gid=1025(backuppc4afs) groups=1025(backuppc4afs)
RArwjms04:bin root# id 502
uid=502(backuppc4afs) gid=1025(backup

This is the way I do it at one location. I h
How did you determine that userid 502 is backuppc4afs? Do "id backuppc4afs"
and "id 502" return the same results? What about "su backuppc4afs -c id"?
Have you configured the Mac to be aware of either an ldap server or AD
domain in Directory Services? It's easy to accidentally configure duplicate
This may be a little long-winded, but I need some input.
In the past I've used external drives to keep a rotation of offsite backups.
One drive would be offsite while the other was receiving dumps of data. I used
an archive host to dump tar_gzip files of all my data.
This system worked great
Hello,

Hi,
I am new to an existing BackupPC server. It was set up a long time ago
and worked fine but the machine died. So the config Files were moved to
a new server where BackupPC was installed via RPM on ubuntu.
Backups are working fine, but old Backups won't get removed, so the HDD
is running out of
