Hello fellow backuppc users,
I'm attempting to backup a directory on a linux box with using the
following host config file:
----------------------------------
$Conf{XferMethod} = 'tar';
$Conf{TarClientPath} = '/bin/tar';
$Conf{TarShareName} = '/etc';
$Conf{TarClientCmd} = '$sshPath -q -x -n -l root $host'
. ' env LC_ALL=C $tarPath -c -v -f - -C $shareName+'
. ' --totals';
$Conf{TarFullArgs} = '$fileList+';
$Conf{TarIncrArgs} = '--newer=$incrDate+ $fileList+';
$Conf{TarClientRestoreCmd} = '$sshPath -q -x -l root $host'
. ' env LC_ALL=C $tarPath -x -p --numeric-owner
--same-owner'
. ' -v -f - -C $shareName+';
----------------------------------
The command it eventually uses is reported as :
/usr/bin/ssh -q -x -n -l root wind env LC_ALL=C /bin/tar -c -v -f - -C /etc
--totals .
Which works from the cli when logged in as root (after copying ssh keys
to client in question) but not from within backuppc; error:
Running: /usr/bin/ssh -q -x -n -l root wind env LC_ALL=C /bin/tar -c -v -f - -C
/etc --totals .
full backup started for directory /etc
Xfer PIDs are now 24504,24503
Tar exited with error 65280 () status
tarExtract: Done: 0 errors, 0 filesExist, 0 sizeExist, 0 sizeExistComp, 0
filesTotal, 0 sizeTotal
Got fatal error during xfer (No files dumped for share /etc)
Backup aborted (No files dumped for share /etc)
backuppc is running as user "apache" and has the following line in
/etc/passwd:
apache:x:48:48:Apache:/var/www:/sbin/nologin
Any ideas on how to get this to work. For security reasons i'd prefer to
keep apache running without shell access.
Thnx in advance,
--
