Re: [BackupPC-users] Host key verification failed after update to Fedora 42 - SOLVED

2025-05-16 Thread John Cusick
Norman, thanks. That's what I did and I found the problem in the config.pl file. I had made one change to keep more, older, full backups using the web interface ( $Conf{FullKeepCnt} ) and the "save" function within the web cgi interface. After running a diff on the original, which I had wisely ba

Perhaps, run  rsync_bpc manually at the command line.  Sometimes this yields more error verbiage. On 5/14/25 10:18 PM, Christian Völker via BackupPC-users wrote: Hi, there is no sense in deleting the known_hosts on your target systems Just to wrap it up: you upgraded your backuppc target

Hi, there is no sense in deleting the known_hosts on your target systems Just to wrap it up: you upgraded your backuppc targets to a new version, right? So there might be a new host key on them (although Richard mentioned it beeing unlikely). Go to your BackupPC host, switch user conte

Kenneth and Richard, Thanks for your replies. Unfortunately, when I discovered the problem yesterday, this is the first thing I did. There was a problem in that regard and I had to delete the old entries in the known_hosts files on the target systems and re-login as the server's backuppc user to r

Ok, so for whatever reason the freenas hostname in our network doesn't route to this IP, so I removed the alias and everything is working now (after setting RsyncClientCmd to the correct path). Thanks for helping me figure out where the problem was! I appreciate it! On 11/8/19 3:21 PM, marki w

Are you using the IP address 192.168 and the host name (freenas) interchangeably? Try sshing into the client using both please. Even though it's the same host, ssh doesn't treat it as such automatically I guess. On November 8, 2019 8:33:25 PM GMT+01:00, Derek Stevens wrote: >Marki, > >When
