Thank you, Les!
That was my total problem. My backups are scheduled to begin at 01:00
and I just had time to get there, logon as backuppc and issue the
ssh-copy-id archiver. Immediately the tar backup began!
What I can't figure out now is why it was working some of the time
without the public k

And you don't need a new key, you just need the public key that

Hi Les,
I'm not getting something about setting up to use rsync to backup /home
on localhost. The instructions that I filed for generating keys is:
Setting up BackupPC software to run rsync using visudo:
Create user backuppc on the server and each client.
Then generate keys for your server bac

Yes, everything works exactly the same. It's slightly less efficient
than running tar locally, but t

Now that's a thought! I didn't realize this.
Hmmm, so does backuppc need a key for local host like the remote

Hi Carl,
As I said in my opening problem description, I'm computer literate, but
not very Linux knowledgeable. Before I retired, my employer used
Windows and since I networked into the system, I had to comply with
their rules. Now I run Linux as my primary boot and resort to Windows
only when I

I think I've killed them without any observed ill effects. (YMMV).
I presume you mean to do this without shutting down other BackupPC processes.
Otherwise, you cou
Hi,
what's the best way to stop running BackupPC_nightly? Is it safe to kill
those processes?
