Hello backuppc users,
I am having problems adding a Debian Lenny workstation to my backuppc
test bed.
I am running an openvpn virtual network over the internet. I have one
Lenny workstation working just fine. I have multiple (2) XP PC's also
running just fine. I am using rsyncd as my transport method.
But, I am unable to add additional Lenny workstations, and cannot figure
out what I may have done differently on the one workstation that works.
In my rsyncd log on my workstation I just keep getting:
auth failed on module bobnotebook from UNKNOWN (10.0.0.1): missing
secret for user "bob"
From the backuppc interface ( on the server ), I get that the server
responded with OK, and then I get a secrets file missing error.
On my workstation:
---------------------------
/etc/rsyncd.conf
max connections = 2
log file = /var/log/rsyncd.log
[bobnotebook] #Module Name
auth users = bob # authorized rsyncd user
path = /home/bob/save # backup folder
secrets file = /etc/rsyncd/rsyncd.scrt
hosts allow = 10.0.0.1
uid = nobody
gid = nogroup
-------------------------------------
/etc/rsyncd/rsyncd.scrt (permissions are read-only for root)
bob:bob
----------------------------------
/etc/default/rsync
RSYNC_ENABLE=inetd
---------------------------------
/etc/xinted.d/rsync
service rsync
{
disable = no
socket_type = stream
wait = no
user = root
server = /usr/bin/rsync
server_args = --daemon
log_on_failure += USERID
}
---------------------------
Also in my hosts.allow on the workstation I have 10.0.0.1
------------------------
Anyone have any thoughts on where I am going wrong, or what I am
missing.
I also have tried running rsync from the command line on the backuppc
server, and I get similar results. I get a
prompt for a password (so the two machines are talking), and then
failure.
THANKS!
bob
