Someone suggested to use the serverv2v2 root account to connect the backuppc user in the network, but for ssh is a security risk to allow root to connect, is there another way to configure the connection to a network linux server to execute backuppc backups?
By the way both linux servers are Ubuntu 8.04 LTS -----Original Message----- From: Jose Torres [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, December 02, 2009 3:00 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Problems to backup linux network computer Hello! I have installed BackupPC on the backup server and I am able to connect to web interface fine. This server is called server2. I have a another server called serverv2v2 which I want to backup from the server2 machine. I can ssh backu...@serverv2v2 without password from server2. I added the serverv2v2 machine in the backuppc host file and created the serverv2v2.pl The machine has non-DHCP IP so I set the host DHCP to 0 running nmblookup serverv2v2 fails, but ping serverv2v2 is succesfull. I have a DNS server in the same network. Both server2 and serverv2v2 are on the same subnet/mask and connect to each other using ssh. I set the ClientNameAlias of serverv2v2 to the static IP of serverv2v2 I executed a manual Full backup for serverv2v2, but when I looked the backup content I see the files are not from serverv2v2, but instead are from server2 What I am missing? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Join us December 9, 2009 for the Red Hat Virtual Experience, a free event focused on virtualization and cloud computing.
