You should save mysql databases this way. The best way is to use a pre-dump script whcih dump tha database you want. For exemple: mysqldump mysqldump --add-drop-table -A -Q > /home/backup/mysql.sql
This command will dump all the mysql databases and save them as a mysql script in /home/backup. Then you can include this file as a standard file in backuppc configuration Le Wed, 8 Nov 2006 12:49:42 +0200, "Mikael Lammentausta" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> a écrit : > Backups of the host below (backup_client) works fine for the two > first folders, but not for /var/lib/mysql.
