I recently upgraded to the 22.04 LTS of Ubuntu, and I'm guessing I now
have the v4 of backuppc. Prior to this, both my local and remote (same
lan) backups were working fine via rsync.
On the remote host, I connect via the backuppc user and root ssh key
(backuppc can ssh as root on the remote host without a password). I
manually tested rsync from command line and I can transfer a file with
no prompts.
The remote backups were failing, so I watched the secure logs and they
show the process connecting to the remote host as 'backuppc' instead of
'root'. I have the user for that host configured correctly.
In the end, I had to add Rsyncssh options to the <host>.pl so it would
connect with the correct user. Why does backuppc ignore the configured
user for that host?
thanks,
Brian J
