Hi all,
I've had a couple of reads of the docs and must have missed something
both times as I'm trying to do something relatively simple but am not
having much joy. Any help with this would be appreciated.
I have one linux server (FC6/2.6.20) running BackupPC 2.1.2 (installed
via yum). My first priority is to backup my wife's email and so I
have set the following config option (I think this is all I've changed
from the default RPM install):
$Conf{ServerHost} = "wilson.colebatch";
$Conf{XferMethod} = 'tar';
$Conf{TarShareName} = '/home/clare';
I have a hosts file that includes this:
host dhcp user moreUsers
wilson.colebatch 0 clare
When I run the backup I get this error:
2007-09-04 21:31:22 Started full backup on wilson.colebatch
(pid=26456, share=/home/clare)
2007-09-04 21:31:29 Backup failed on wilson.colebatch (No files dumped
for share /home/clare)
The fact that it has "share /home/clare" makes me think its trying to
use smb rather than tar (although I have read the comment in the
config.pl).... I have also checked permissions by enabling the
backuppc account and creating the tar by hand at the shell level.
Where should I look next? My wife emailed me today asking me if the
email to her telling her that "her" computer (ie the mailserver)
hadn't been backed up, was spam or not (o:
Thanks in advance for any help and directions.
cheers,
dim
