What other format can I try?
You need to confirm how apache passes such a user name
via the REMOTE_USER environment variable. Use the
printenv script included in apache's cgi-bin to see.
Second, do you use single or double-quotes in defining $Conf{CgiAdminUsers}?
With an embedded backslash you will need to use single quotes.
Turns out I needed double quotes :)

[BackupPC-users] Installation on Fedora Core 5 login to CGI page trouble.
I have previously (several months ago) installed Backuppc on Ubuntu. This time I am trying to install it on K12LTSP 5 (Fedora Core 5)I installed using yum.

Re: [BackupPC-users] Installation on Fedora Core 5 login to CGI pagetrouble.
I'll bet you have an Apache password issue. When BackupPC installed it should have set up a username of backuppc and an 8 character long random looking password. Every time I have run install it comes up with a screen that gives you this password. This username and password is stored in a file in the directory, I believe that the file is called htpasswd. This is an Apache web server password. To set the password you need to do an htpasswd command. You will find general instructions on using htpasswd with Apache here: http://www.apacheweek.com/features/userauth I am sorry I do not remember where the htpasswd file is stored in the directory structure. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Krsnendu dasa Sent: Monday, December 04, 2006 9:57 AM To: backuppc-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [BackupPC-users] Installation on Fedora Core 5 login to CGI pagetrouble.

Re: [BackupPC-users] Problem with Web client 2.1.2
Fabio, Usually, when it complains that Apache can't connect to BackupPC, it's because BackupPC isn't running. You can log in as root, then do 'service backuppc restart' and see what it does. It should shut down first, then start. I expect it to say 'failed' when trying to shut down, because I don't think it's running. Then it should start, and your www will be working. However, if it says 'ok' when shutting down, you've got other problems, like files are in the wrong place, or some user permissions problem (httpd needs to run as a user that can access BackupPC files), etc. You can also check to see if it is running by doing a 'ps ux' and looking at the programs running as your backuppc user. Good luck, JH Fabio Parodi wrote: The problem I have is about the BackupPC Web client. I'm pretty sure I did something wrong during the installation, but I can't fix it now.

Re: [BackupPC-users] rsyncd exclude
I had no luck with getting rsyncd on Windows to work with spaces in
filenames through the config file. I resorted to using the 8.3
filenames instead, ie:
secrets file = c:/Progra~1/rsyncd/rsyncd.secrets
The easy way to find them is to do a dir /x and you get both the long
and short names.
Hope this helps,

Byron, perhaps you should post your rsyncd.conf on your Window's box and pc
config.pl from BackupPC to the list. Make sure to censor your passwords if
necessary. It seems like you have a simple misconfiguration issue but it's
hard to pin point without specifics.

[BackupPC-users] not compressing
Backuppc is not compressing my files. After some research I have figured
out that maybe it is because I configured it for the localhost using:
$Conf{TarClientCmd} = '/usr/bin/sudo $tarPath -c -v -f - -C $shareName+
--totals';
and it is not using the variables
$Conf{ArchiveComp} = 'gzip';
$Conf{CompressLevel} = 1;
I tried adding '-z' to make it compress files using gzip, but it didn't
worked. Any hint of what to do?
thanks a lot

Re: [BackupPC-users] Problems getting Samba connection to work - XP
Quickly try making backup an administrator and re-run the smbclient command. If it's a permission thing, this will solve it for sure. (In which case, you'll have to figure out what permission Backup Operators lack... perhaps access for C$ has been restricted or broken. You could try deleting C$ share and rebooting. Or you might find this helpful. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/314984) If being an administrator doesn't help, try using the actual administrator user to access C$. If that doesn't work, there's got to be something wrong with the share, especially if other shares work. I'm no SMB guru, though.

I am not escaping the $ but use a command similar to what you show below and get NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED. Again, If I change the command from /usr/bin/smbclient gandolf\\C$ -U backup to /usr/bin/smbclient gandolf\\Eric -U backup it connects to the Eric folder just fine. Just a thought, have you tried: /usr/bin/smbclient gandolf\\C\$ -U backup Regards, Adam -- Adam Goryachev Website Managers Ph: +61 2 8304 [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fax: +61 2 8304 0001www.websitemanagers.com.au - Take Surveys.

Re: [BackupPC-users] BackupPC_link got error -4
Mac writes: I have searched but can't find anything about this (hope I didn't miss it somewhere). I'm getting this error in my logs. Anyone know if this is good, bad, indifferent or if there is a way to fix it? I just installed BackupPC and currently have 3 Debian 3.1 Linux clients backing up to the server. I currently have 1 full and 2 incremental backups of each client. The server is also running Debian 3.1 Linux with BackupPC version 2.1.2pl1. BackupPC_link got error -4 when calling MakeFileLink(/var/lib/backuppc/pc/clientname/2/f%2f/fvar/fwww/fweb8/fweb/fmodules/fuseralbum/flocale/fru/attrib, 0aa64187c550d91c15265a9c7d0b971f, 1) This might mean you are out of hardlinks (use df -i to check) or that /var/lib/backuppc/pc/clientname is on a different filesystem than /var/lib/backuppc/cpool (use: df /var/lib/backuppc/pc/clientname df /var/lib/backuppc/cpool to check).
