Just had this happen with internet disconnected. I did no name change of my own.
Reproduce: Run backups normal with internet. Keep router connected but pull internet. Have Deja Dup run backups. 2nd day Deja Dup complains stupidly about a name change. For whatever reason, the name Duja Dup uses in the backup files contains the a name in reference to the internet for me. No internet, no name. I don't know why this is even a problem. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to deja-dup in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1268182 Title: Computer name changed Status in Déjà Dup: Confirmed Status in deja-dup package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I am/was using Deja-Dup (version 26.0) on Fedora 19, I modified my router settings to use openDNS instead of my ISP's DNS. Then the next time I ran Deja-dup I had the message:- The existing backup is of a computer named advancedsearch.virginmedia.com, but the current computer's name is Zotac-Zbox-ID82. If this is unexpected, you should backup to a different location. Since I wasn't asked to specify a computer name, and the underlying "duplicity" (version: 0.6.22) would appear to get the machine name from the wrong file, I understand that the computer name is kept in two files (a bad practice in my mind). So can the interface be changed to show and or allow one to specify what hostname is used?
