Hi all,
This may seem like a stupid question, but I keep running in circles
and confusing myself.
So I want to backup our windows 2k file server (ipaddr: 10.1.0.2)
over a secure intranet to a debian sarge server (ipaddr: 10.1.0.10).
I have backuppc set up on the deb server.
I'm trying to set up an already installed version of cygwin 1.5.18-1
with rsync 2.6.3-1.
My main confusion is that backuppc docs recommend rysnc run as a
server/daemon on the windows machine.
In the resulting rsynd.conf that is created (or, I should say, in the
process of being created), I need a "path" variable, which from what
I can gather is so the rsync server knows where to send the data it
is backing up. Since I am backing up on the debian server, not the
win server....
(I hope this question is right, and I haven't missed something
obvious somewhere)
can the path be of the format, or should the path be of the format
[modulename]
path = 10.1.0.10:/data/c
where /data/c is the place on the debian server where I want the data
backed up by backuppc to end up?
Cheers
Lachlan
