backuppcuser is that the user on the backuppc server or the user on the

I am trying to modify the settings for backing up a Ubuntu client using
tar. Does anyone on the list have a pointer to a document that shows the
correct way to include the sudo command in the proper spot. I am
assuming one would have to use ssh keys for this to work.
TIA

I would like to just clarify why I do it this way. When I first took
this job we did just that. get out the OS disks, rebuild the File
Systems, then do a restore from the tapes. It took us an entire day. I
also had to rebuild all of my user accounts and printers and shares as
the process they had b

That is fine, whatever floats your boat. ;-)
I have small systems and am by myself so this works for me.

Hello list...
I was wondering if I may be doing some sort of "bare metal restore" of a
Linux server, if I'd be backing it up *completely* on my backuppc
server.

Kris,
In my setup I would have loved to just use the mounts but security
issues here put a stop to that so I had to go to rsync. That has worked
on my Windows XP and Server 2003 machines but I am having issues with my
Server 2008 machines but that may be another firewall and security
issue. I am by
It does
for me.

In checking my logs on my new installation I see that /proc is being
backed up while I have it in the Exclude portion of the config. I had it
in that section as /proc and as ./proc and both of these continue to be
backed up each night causing me a ton of error messages.

I verified that rsyncd is running on the server but I am getting Inet
Connection refused which probably means there is a firewall issue. I can
ping the server from the BackupPC server but that only means the server
is live and ICMP packets are getting to the server. I have to go through
two firewal
Thanks
I verified it is running but there must be some other reason that the
connection is being refused. I turned off the firewall just to see if
that was causing it but I still get Inet connection refused. Has to be
something else on the system that is blocking the port.

All of the suggestions will work but has anyone setup BackupPC to use something
other than Ping to see if the host is alive? I have telnet available and
someone else suggested httping but the ping command is used to send a few
requests to just test the machine.
I don't see anything in the Backup
In my setup ICMP packets are dropped by the firewall in front of the
machine I need to backup. I have been searching for alternatives but
haven't found anything yet. Any pointers to a fix? Any other way to let
BackupPC know he machine is alive?
