Re: [BackupPC-users] localhost backup problems Version 2.1.2
I can run the ssh rsync thing (sudo hasn't work for me yet) from the command line but it doesn't work from the web page. I think it is because it asks if I want to accept the security key and then asks for the root password. How can I get around this so it will run from CGI interface?
