I am having trouble getting the backuppc daemon to send a
warning to me, the admin user, of no recent backups of
hosts. I have configured sendmail on the host pc that I want
the message sent to listen for all messages which is
working. The following is a summary of my backup server
configuration and status of those efforts.
Email configuration for backuppc in config.pl
###########################################################################
# Email reminders, status and messages
# (can be overridden in the per-PC config.pl)
###########################################################################
$Conf{EMailFromUserName} = 'backuppc@mydomain';
$Conf{EMailAdminUserName} = 'jbk@t4s.mydomain';
$Conf{EMailUserDestDomain} = '@t4s.mydomain';
###########################################################################
When I test message delivery with backuppc thus:
---
bash-4.4$ /usr/share/BackupPC/bin/BackupPC_sendEmail -u
jbk@t4s.mydomain
Sending test email using /usr/sbin/sendmail -t -f
backuppc@mydomain
---
The user jbk at host t4s receives the test message.
But when backuppc runs as a daemon the mail delivery fails
because the sender relay falls back to
backuppc@localhost.localdomain
Since localhost.localdomain does not exist in the config.pl
it is being applied from the server environment.
What do I need to edit to get this to work properly?
