Depends on what you mean by secure. If you mean, is the connection 
encrypted?, then no. You want to use rsync over SSH, which is perfectly 
possible on Windows as well.

Excellent - thank you for your reply.  Just to be clear, the script I'm

BackupPC_serverMesg server reload

[BackupPC-users] Send Test email

2012-07-04 Thread Bryan Keadle (.net)
As referenced 
herehttp://www.backupcentral.com/phpBB2/two-way-mirrors-of-external-mailing-lists-3/backuppc-21/email-problem-in-backuppc-72173/,
there was talk of providing a way for sending test emails.  It would be
nice to have this ability to test/verify email setup within BackupPC web
GUI.

However, how/where does BackupPC know what SMTP server to use for sending
email?  Is there a configuration option somewhere to specify an SMTP server
to use?  Logged in as the backuppc user, I am running:

BackupPC_sendEmail -t |less


And it shows the email content, but not whether it was successful sending
it, or if it was sent at all.  I haven't received the email, so there seems
to be some configuration I'm missing somewhere.

It should hand it to sendmail, which will deliver it however sendmail
is configured.   Normally sendmail will just follow DNS MX records.
