Re: [BackupPC-users] unable to use rsync with NOPASSWD

[Mike Bosschaert]

Bingo! I followed the step to upload the ssh key (ssh-copy-id) to the client, but for some reason the key was not uploaded. Probably because the shell for the backuppc user was /bin/false. After I set the shell to /bin/sh the key was succesfully transferred and backup was succesful. Thanks! On 05-06-16 09:05, Benjamin Redling wrote: Hi, have added the public key to the authorized Keys? Sounds like it is asking for the login pw. Not the sudo pw. B Am 5.

Recently I've had to reinstall my os (opensuse leap) on one of my clients. I added the user backuppc, added the user to the sudoers file (using visudo) with the NOPASSWD:/usr/bin/rsync option. But when I issue the backup command from the backup server: /usr/bin/ssh -q -x -l backuppc 192.168.2.102 nice -n 19 sudo /usr/bin/rsync --server --sender --numeric-ids --perms --owner --group -D --links --hard-links --times --block-size=2048 --recursive . / the client keeps asking for the password. Is there someone who could help me solving this problem? Thx Mike
