Hi Sean,

Can you please setup backup for albatross?

I gave sudo permissions to the "jafo" user, which has
the key j...@guin.tummy.com authorized.

I think the policy now is that root logins to albatross
are not allowed. So what might work is this:

Create an rsyncbackup user, and give it sudo permission
to run rsync (any command line arguments). Put your backup
pubkey into rsyncbackup's authorized_keys.

Could that actually work?

albatross admins: would that be an acceptable setup?

As for volumes to backup: I think /srv needs regular backup.
Not sure about any of the others (and neither sure what your
current strategy is wrt. volumes on the other machines).
Compared to /srv, everything else is peanuts, anyway.

Regards,
Martin

P.S. I have removed ~root/.ssh/authorized_keys. It only
contained my key, and root logins are disallowed, anyway.

P.P.S. You can stop doing regular backups to bag. I think we
should keep the machine one for a little while, then turn
it off and keep it around for a further while, and then return
it to XS4ALL; making a complete dump before returning it.
