I have an old version running successfully.  -> BackupPC-2.1.2-7.fc6

Now I am trying to get BackupPC-3.2.1-10.fc17.i686  working.

I passed the no error you can see "no service start" thing. It was some of
some weird FC17 thing. Now I can't get the most basic backup to run.

On the old version my most basic old config was

$Conf{RsyncClientCmd} = '/usr/bin/ssh -q -x -l root $host $rsyncPath
$argList+';

$Conf{RsyncShareName}= [  '/home/five01', '/home/six04' ];  ## share name
to backup (ie: top-level directory )
$Conf{XferMethod} = 'rsync';
$Conf{RsyncClientPath}='/usr/bin/rsync';

But now it is not cutting it on the new version. I've tried to read and
experimented with a few configs. It was late I admit. Now I give up and I
simply ask --

I have a server called lamp with ssh access via keys. backuppc on
the-backup-machine can ssh in to root@lamp via keys.

I have an all new install (second try) with the default configs  -- SO
 what do I have to specify in pc/lamp/config,pl to back up only two
directories:

/home/five01
home/six04

Please .. just show me how!


I tried this config

*$ pwd*
*/var/lib/BackupPC/pc/lamp*
*$ more config.pl*
*
*
*
*
*$Conf{RsyncShareName} = '/';*
*
*
* $Conf{BackupFilesOnly} = {*
*    '/' =>  [*
*      '/home/five01',*
*      '/home/six04',*
*    ]*
* };*
*
*

dump as a debug shows:


*$  /usr/share/BackupPC/bin/BackupPC_dump -v -f lamp*
