If you decide to go the rsync route, here are the commands i used, i can explain it to you if you need it.
This is the command that i used for backups: rsync -e ssh -varuzLP ~/Documents ~/torrents ~/src metta@192.168.1.8:/home/metta/backup/ /*use rsync to backup files */ and the command to generate security keys: /* create key pair so no password needed with ssh, turn off password auth in /etc/ssh/sshd_config*/ ssh-keygen -t dsa /* on source system, just hit enter @ prompts */ ssh-copy-id -i ~/.ssh/id_dsa.pub metta@192.168.1.8 /* dest machine */ -- Ubuntu-us-ca mailing list Ubuntu-us-ca@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-us-ca
