- can you set up a cron job on the remote machine to push the backup

It'd have to be ssh 'sudo su -', but that doesn't work:
# rsync --verbose --checksum --archive --partial --progress --rsh=ssh 'sudo

Obviously, if you've never used sudo you'll have to emerge the package
app-admin/sudo. Then, configure /etc/sudoers with the visudo command.
Find #%wheel ALL=(ALL)ALL and uncomment it. Then, add the
user you want to be able to use sudo to the wheel group (usermod -g
name). And that's
oops. It's Then, add the user you want to be able to use sudo to the

Hello,
I'm trying to set up my computers so I make backups of my server from my
workstation (we don't have a backup server). The thing is that I have a
normal user on that server and I'm on the sudoers file to perform any
root-task.
Now, to back up, I'm running an rsync thru ssh to the server,
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1
Run sudo after you ssh. On my network, I backup my servers by setting
up sudoers on the server I want to backup and running the following
command from my workstation:
ssh flags user@hostname sudo dump -udumplevelf- filesystem |
gzip
