Dear Richard:
Again, you're a godsend. I can root ssh to the Thecus!
But I wish exchanging keys were that simple with the Thecus NAS. The
Thecus has a sandboxed operating system. Anything below /raid will be
eaten up on reboot. To do keys you have to use a module called FajoSSHD
that's
The easy way to exchange keys on Fedora to use rsync over ssh assuming
you're using root to do the backup on the clien:
(as root)
# su -s /bin/bash -l backuppc
# ssh-keygen
(don't add a passphrase, it would defeat the purpose)
# ssh-copy-id root@
After that you should be able to "ssh root@" and
Public/private keys are tough enough for me to understand. I'm hoping
there is a way to set up rsync on the server to use a tough client without
a password using tasks defined in rsyncd.conf.
The tough client is a Thecus NAS which is pretty sandboxed. I love it,
though, cause it requires minimal

I found the instructions to run httpd (apache) as the backupPC user
(backuppc) to be a graceful way to get BackupPC to play well with all the
required file ownership.

Hi guys. I was about to bind a second mount for my convenience in fstab
for topdir. I then read man bind and learned about the danger of using
bind because backup programs that access directories by name would
therefore backup the same material twice! Unless you put an exclude in the
rsync
