I was able to get the server connected and backing up. In the 'ClientNameAlias' field, I entered the servers IP address. Although the other change I still need to make is to reapply Windows firewall and see if it's still good. Terry -Original Message- From: Holger Parplies

[BackupPC-users] rsync --exclude options - why are they stripped?

2014-11-12 Thread mwilck
This question has been asked before (http://sourceforge.net/p/backuppc/mailman/message/22459100/, http://sourceforge.net/p/backuppc/mailman/message/31066154/), but I haven't seen any answers, so I ask again, because this is something I really want to understand. The Documentation of

Got it, finallly - the include/exclude options are sent to the client via the rsync protocol. From the XferLog: Sent exclude#58; /trash Sent exclude#58; /tmp Sent exclude#58; *.iso Sent exclude#58; *.rpm This happens to both the RsyncExtraArgs and backupExclude / BackupInclude options. So

Hi all on an Ubuntu 14.04 server I've installed backuppc afresh, moved /var/lib/backuppc to /mnt/raid (a raid1 soft raid setup) and am in the process of configuring the last steps. Web access is fine and I can add hosts etc but I've reached a stumbling block with the ssh-key setup. Following

Hey Les as usual you were spot on. It definitely was the Firefox cache at play - I had connected to this box from Firefox previously before rebuilding it so something must have hung around from previous config. Cleared cache and all ok once more. Cheers. On 08/11/14 16:40, Les Mikesell

User backuppc, by default, has the home directory in the same place where the files will be saved, or, if you prefer, files get saved into user backuppc HOME. You relocated the save space (how? if You installed from source it's ok, but otherwise there are a number of problems there), but I

Hi all and thanks for the prompt and helpful answers. I installed this via normal Ubuntu packages which I believe installs the backuppc user as part of the install. Les' idea of mounting first to /var/lib/backuppc and *then* installing backuppc makes a lot of sense. So I've unmounted
