 Hi, you've set visudo for the command /bin/tar but...

the error states that it is using  /bin/gtar, which it gleans from

You'll need to match them up for it to work.



OK. I changed the visudo to /bin/gtar but it still gives the same error.
I changed the share I wanted to backup to one with full permission and it
still hangs.

you can also still use rsync with sudo and a script called rsyncSend.

Can I use rsyncd? What tricks would be needed for that?

Re: [BackupPC-users] localhost backup problems Version 2.1.2

2006-12-17 Thread Krsnendu dasa

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?

[BackupPC-users] localhost backup problems Version 2.1.2

2006-12-16 Thread Krsnendu dasa

I am having problems backing up localhost. It only allows me to backup
directories and files with access set for all.

I have tried rsyncd. When I use rsync from my windows computer I can copy
files from any share, but when I try to use it from BackupPC it gives me
permissions problems.

Here is the xfer log:

And I used visudo to add:

backuppc ALL = NOPASSWD: /bin/tar


The error message says:

When I run it from the command line it gives this message:

It seems like it is waiting for a password or something. I tried entering
the root password but it didn't do anything.
