Hi guys.

I've got too much time invested in Redhat to try Debian ;-(

What version are you running? 5  / 6 / 7?

Version of what? I've got Redhat based on Fedora 25 is the release 
number off the top of my head, and I can recheck. So I don't understand 
the numbers "5 / 6 / 7".




I'm currently building for CentOS/RHEL in my COPR[1] but I don't have 
any testing reports from anything other than 7.

Re: [BackupPC-users] BackupPC v4 for Fedora / EPEL Update

[Bob Katz]

Thanks, Richard and list!

Does the EPEL and COPR installer for backuppc recognize that backuppc 
has already been installed and overwrite it? I don't mind overwriting. I 
just want to know if the installer covers existing installs. I've 
already  installed the modified rsync, all the Perl dependencies, etc. 
I've run the Perl install script as well, following along with


http://sgowtham.com/journal/backuppc-on-red-hat-enterprise-linux/

It seems most of the stuff is there, though I haven't launched the app 
yet. Maybe I'm just missing the inet.d script and who knows what else. 
But installing from a complete Fedora or Redhat repository instead would 
be much better of course. Should I wipe any stuff from my installation 
before venturing into a whole new install using EPEL and COPR approach?


Thanks,


Bob

Can't you name the package backuppc4 so they can have overlapping life
spans and updates?   Seems safer than putting a same-named package in
a different repo where a future update will probably accidentally pull
in some other same-named package and clobber the one you wanted to
keep.

Because there's not really an automated upgrade path with the extensiveness
of the changes there's really not a good way to do it. I don't want to
break anyone's running system.

I hate to wait for EL 8 but not sure what the options are. With the long
life of EL releases it's a difficult problem to work around.

Is there a timeline for when version 4.x will appear in the main epel repo?

i've been burned by this in the past -- in my case it was a wrapper 
around ssh that i use for a particular host which was producing a bit
of startup output, and it took me a long time to realize it was
causing the failure.

i can't think of any way for backuppc to help with this (and i tried).

You are right, of course... Seems the -T parameter to ssh went away at some 
point from the master rsync transfer configuration, and the ssh authorized_keys 
entries for the backup login were created with no-pty.

Thankfully, at this point, it seems to be running very smoothly. :)

That's where the actual packages are stored, you need to start with
installing the repository:

Dear Daniel and Richard and group:

Sorry, I'm not familiar with all the acronyms.

I'm very excited to see a repository for Fedora/Redhat!

When I go to the EPEL repository page


https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/7/x86_64/

I'm presented with a plethora of possible downloads and I'm completely 
lost, I don't know what to download.



Thanks for any help,



Bob Katz

[BackupPC-users] Need script linux-backuppc

[Bob Katz]

Hi guys.

I've got too much time invested in Redhat to try Debian ;-(

Currently I'm working my way through the out-of-date tutorial by the 
excellent Gowtham:


http://sgowtham.com/journal/backuppc-on-red-hat-enterprise-linux/

I'm progressing very well using the latest version of Backuppc, but I 
cannot find the script to self start on boot, which is supposed to go 
into etc/init.d


This script is called

linux-backuppcand I cannot find it anywhere. Can someone please 
point me to it?


Thanks  Hopefully this will take me further on my journey to getting 
Backuppc fully working.
