Re: [BackupPC-users] First backup failing Host Key and No files dumped

I must have run into something similar at some point, as I have additional notes where I copied the .pub file to a location readable by backuppc and then used the ssh-copy-id command with that version of the file. Thanks, Greg Harris On Oct 1, 2020, at 1:26 PM, David Hoskinson

David, The backuppc user generally doesn’t have shell access. You should be able to use something like: su -s /bin/bash backuppc ssh-copy-id -i .ssh/id_rsa.pub ‘r...@client.to.backup' exit On the server, you can add shell access to the backuppc user with: usermod -s
