I reran the dump command line. Looks like this fixed the problem as I started getting a list of files from the first folder on SHARE1. I aborted the dump command and ran BackupPC to request a full backup. Job started and is running as I type. That only leaves one issue: I can't log into the web GUI from the Windows server. I have ssl setup and can get the default web page with https://Archiver/ but https://Archiver/BackupPC/ gets a 403 screen - Not Authorized . This is the same line that I use on Archiver to pull up the BackupPC GUI. -- ken -----Original Message----- From: Adam Goryachev [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, October 14, 2008 1:25 AM To: General list for user discussion,questions and support Subject: Re: [BackupPC-users] Almost working That means that you are not finding the backuppc command... you will need to work out where backuppc commands are installed. Try: locate backuppc_dump or locate BackupPC_dump (I think locate is case-insensitive) You might also try something like: rpm -ql backuppc | grep -i dump See "man rpm" to find out how to get a list of files installed by a package.. -q should be query). Mind you, it is a very long time since I used rpm, so my command line might be wrong. If all else fails, this will work: find / |grep -i backuppc_dump When you eventually find the correct command to execute, you can then (as the backuppc user) run the command as follows: BackupPC_dump -v -f hostname You do not specify the sharename, or put any \ or / on the command line. You specify the hostname, and backuppc will work out the shares from your config files. Also, hostnames should always be stored in your backuppc configs as lower case, and probably used as lower case. (This is just my suggestions, whether it makes a difference or not I do not know). Technically, hostnames should be case in-sensitive, but using all lower case everywhere should help rule it out as a problem. So, find out where the backuppc commands are installed, run it with just the hostname after the -v -f, and then send us the results.
