Re: Cloning a Debian system
Here is a quick way I do it. lets say you put in a spare hard drive at /dev/hdc make the filesystems you want on /dev/hdc (at least on for the / partition) and leave room for the swap partition. now mount your filesystems together off of say /mnt now 'find / -xdev -print | cpio -p -admuV /mnt' The -xdev means find wont descend directories on other filesystems. so if you have /usr on another partition it wont copy it. you'll need to run 'find /usr -xdev -print | cpio -p -admuV /mnt' to copy it. The bonus here is it also wont copy /mnt... now that would make a mess :) also note the V in -admuV tells cpio to print one '.' per file copied take it out if you want. cd to /mnt/etc/ and fix the fstab file to your new setup and off you go. This may not be complete instructions but it should take you 99% there. I probably dont need to say this but: _always_ be careful doing anything as root and read the man pages to understand what you are doing. --Udjat On Tue, 13 Jan 1998, Gregory Guthrie wrote: » I have setup a small Debian Linux system as a router, is there an easy way » to clone this?

Re: Backup systems: opinions wanted
I use bru 2000 and I am _very_ happy with it. I also us cpio to copy my whole filesystem(/) to a different partition (/snapshot) to have a online read-only backup of files.

Then pppd would send another request with the same serial # (since it never received a responce from the first), and this would go one until the time-out and redial. Weird Did you ever figure out a solution? I would like to be able to use the LCP features. exp bsd_comp.o It makes my modem fly and adding it to the ISDN would be nice.

Re: Help with Debian and ISDN

I'll explain my setup. - External Motorola Bitsurfer Pro - using cua1 or ttyS1 (both dial and connect via V.120) - I am using ppp (start and stop) in /etc/init.d I have the isdnutils package installed but have not deployed that control. I have read the mini HOWTO as well. there is a small mistake in it. Should be AT%A2=95 not AT%A2=92. good you found that... I am betting you have a BitSurfr Pro EZ. I think the other string is for a standard BitSurfr Pro. I am connecting into a Livingston digital modem bank and I do have 2 channel capabilities. I can successfully connect when I set my link protocol to V.120, however only a single 64K channel is established. (thats good because multi-link-PPP cannot be established via V.120). I am not running PAP. (could this be my problem?) Yep you have to be using pap. When I dial into the Livingston, without bonding I login with my user id and password and then the negotiation starts. All is well. When I dial into the Livingston, with bonding, I never get the Login prompt from the Livingston. ? Again using pap wil fix this. If someone has gotten bonding to work with a BitSurfer Pro and Debian a kick in the right direction with be appreciated. It's working as i type this... :) Also I cant seem to get LCP EchoReq to work. I have turned that feature in pppd off. (in /etc/ppp/options) On the same note I also cant seen to get LCP ConfReq working for bsd_comp.o eather. shrug Whoo! ,, / ( _(-)- .' ^^ [EMAIL PROTECTED] `- Bitburn Access. -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word unsubscribe to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .

PPP question.
I have a BitsurfrPro EZ modem (ISDN). I can do single channel connections just fine.
