According to the man pages, the ConnectTimeout and ServerAlive settings only 
apply to ssh_config, i.e. the BPC end, whereas the other settings only apply to 
sshd_config, i.e. the host you are trying to backup.

Maybe the client has its own firewall?

The BPC timeout setting is ClientTimeout on the Backup Settings page. For SSH 
you would have to delve into /etc/ssh_config and /etc/sshd_config. Look for 
ConnectionTimeout, ClientAliveInterval, ClientAliveCountMax and 
ServerAliveInterval. More details via man ssh_config and man sshd_config.

That's actually a slightly different error (io.c(1556) instead of
io.c(629)). It's possible that browsing the source code of io.c would offer
a clue, but it's a pretty generic error, so it's probably time to enable
verbose logging on both ends and do some proper debugging. I'd do that by

I've set the timeout on my backuppc server to 604800 which is one week. One of 
my clients has just completed its first full backup. However, my other clients 
are still receiving the same rysnc error as before...

And what do you have set for timeout - is it 600 seconds? Or perhaps the SSH

So I should set my ConnectTimeout on my backuppc server then?

According to the man pages, the ConnectTimeout and ServerAlive settings only 
apply to ssh_config, i.e. the BPC end, whereas the other settings only apply to 
sshd_config, i.e. the host you are trying to backup.

Maybe the client has its own firewall?

The BPC timeout setting is ClientTimeout on the Backup Settings page. For SSH 
you would have to delve into /etc/ssh_config and /etc/sshd_config. Look for 
ConnectionTimeout, ClientAliveInterval, ClientAliveCountMax and 
ServerAliveInterval. More details via man ssh_config and man sshd_config.

Perhaps the client's firewall is blocking pings.

And what do you have set for timeout - is it 600 seconds? Or perhaps the SSH 
connection is timing out.

Why dont you use

Re: [BackupPC-users] Can't switch users to BackupPC in terminal?

2018-03-12 Thread Robert Trevellyan

Perhaps the client's firewall is blocking pings.

And what do you have set for timeout - is it 600 seconds? Or perhaps the
SSH connection is timing out.

I believe I solved my issue of the hostname, I had to use the IP address for 
some reason, I cant use the FQDN.


Also, when I try to run a backup it fails after about 10 minutes, I'm receiving 
the following message...


2018-03-12 16:39:08 Got fatal error during xfer (rsync error: error in rsync 
protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(629) [generator=3.0.9.11])

 I'm not sure on what that error means?

I don't see any copy command from the backuppc server to the client here?

Why dont you use

ssh-copy-id -i /var/lib/backuppc/.ssh/id_rsa.pub root@backuppc-client

(execute this as root user on the backuppc server!)

I copied it to the authorized keys file, and I can successfully ssh to my

However, when I went to run my first full backup of my client, I am getting the 
following error...

The public key you need to copy is the one for the backuppc user, not the root 
user, because it's the backuppc user that's going to be making the connection 
(yes, you will add it to the root user's authorized_keys on the client, because 
bacuppc will sign into the client as root).

Your initial error report shows this:
/usr/bin/ssh-copy-id: INFO: Source of key(s) to be installed: 
"/var/lib/backuppc/.ssh/id_rsa.pub"

This shows that it's trying to copy the key from the correct place. On my BPC4 
install, /var/lib/backuppc is symlinked to /srv/backuppc, which is why I asked 
if you were working in that folder, i.e. did you 'cd /srv/backuppc' (or 'cd 
/var/lib/backuppc')?

If necessary, copy the public key to a regular text file, send that to the

Re: [BackupPC-users] Can't switch users to BackupPC in terminal?

2018-03-12 Thread Robert Trevellyan

The public key you need to copy is the one for the backuppc user, not the
root user, because it's the backuppc user that's going to be making the
connection (yes, you will add it to the root user's authorized_keys on the
client, because bacuppc will sign into the client as root).

Your initial error report shows this:
*/usr/bin/ssh-copy-id: INFO: Source of key(s) to be installed:
"/var/lib/backuppc/.ssh/id_rsa.pub"*

This shows that it's trying to copy the key from the correct place. On my
BPC4 install, /var/lib/backuppc is symlinked to /srv/backuppc, which is why
I asked if you were working in that folder, i.e. did you 'cd /srv/backuppc'
(or 'cd /var/lib/backuppc')?

2018-03-12 Thread Marc Gilliatt

I'm sorry, I'm not too sure on what you mean by working in /srv/backuppc?


I copied and pasted the RSA key from my backuppc server to my host I would like 
backing up. I ran the following commands,


On my backuppc server:

cat /root/.ssh/id_rsa.pub > id_rsa.pub_copy


On my host server:

cat id_rsa.pub_copy >> /root/.ssh/authorized_keys


I then switched users to backuppc, and tried to ssh to my host, however, I was 
still getting Permission denied (publickey,password).

Are you working in /srv/backuppc?

What is the error message?

If necessary, copy the public key to a regular text file, send that to the 
host, then log into the host and append it to the authorized_keys file.

If necessary, copy the public key to a regular text file, send that to the

Re: [BackupPC-users] Can't switch users to BackupPC in terminal?

2018-03-08 Thread Marc Gilliatt

So I've tried to copy my RSA key to one of my hosts whilst I was root, and that 
worked fine, I could successfully ssh into that host. However, when I switch 
users to backuppc, and try to copy the RS key to that same host, I still get 
the same error as stated in my previous email.


/usr/bin/ssh-copy-id: INFO: Source of key(s) to be installed: 
"/var/lib/backuppc/.ssh/id_rsa.pub"
/usr/bin/ssh-copy-id: INFO: attempting to log in with the new key(s), to filter 
out any that are already installed
/usr/bin/ssh-copy-id: INFO: 1 key(s) remain to be installed -- if you are 
prompted now it is to install the new keys
Permission denied (publickey,password).
$ ssh root@10.16.0.16

I don't know why I cant copy my RSA key to my host whilst I am the backuppc 
user?

I tried using su - backuppc -s /bin/sh instead and that worked, it allowed me 
to switch users to backuppc, however, when I try to copy the RSA key to my 
hosts I'm getting...

I've installed BackupPC 4 and I cant switch users to backuppc to add hosts?


I've tried...


su - backuppc


but it just keeps going back to the terminal, it never switches users.


I've tried adding hosts via the GUI, and for some reason, the backups are 
failing giving the same error message...

2018-03-05 09:00:01 Can't find host 
ukat2<http://10.16.0.163/BackupPC_Admin?host=ukat2> via NS and netbios
2018-03-05 09:00:01 can't ping  (client = 
ukat2<http://10.16.0.163/BackupPC_Admin?host=ukat2>); exiting

Not sure what I'm doing wrong?
