It looks as if your path in the startup script or the environment path does not have /sbin (or whereever start-stop-daemon is located) for user backuppc. Make sure it is installed and validate the startup script path or environment string for PATH when logged in as backuppc. Allen... -- / Break away from the Gates of Windows...

[BackupPC-users] Vista-64 Restored Folders Coming Back as Shared Folders
Hello; I am having some issues with a Vista-64 client machine (go figure)... This is specifically with restores coming back as Shared Folders. Permissions seem to be intact however the folder gets Shared after a restore which is not a good thing. There appears to have been a thread previously requesting assistance on XP which went unanswered here: http://news.gmane.org/find-root.php?message_id=%3cghbs5r%24gii%241%40ger.gmane.org%3e I have tried a bunch of stuff with GID, UID settings in rsyncd.conf but still the same outcome. They are currently at default (-2) which is why there is no entry in my conf file below. The UID/GID from the backup log matches the local passwd/group files from Cygwin so I don't understand why it would come back as a shared folder when explicitly there aren't even any group perms. pool 700 1000/513 3462461 1DMarkIII-AF-Setup/Canon_EOS-1D_Mark_III_White_Paper.pdf Wondering if anyone could shed some light on this situation.

Re: [BackupPC-users] Permissions problem with Apache
Yaakov Chaikin wrote:
Ok, after reading some more docs, the following set up should work,
but it doesn't:
1) Everything that has to do with BackupPC is owned by user backuppc.
2) config.pl specified backuppc as the user.
3) The CGI script (which, for me, happens to be at
/usr/share/BackupPC/sbin//BackupPC_Admin) is owned by the backuppc
user, but its group is set to apache, which is the same group as the
apache user has. I.e., the Web server which is run as apache
should be able to execute the CGI script.
3) My Apache web server loads mod_perl.
Ok, after all that, it still gives me the same error message as in the
first post.
What am I doing wrong here?

Ok, I dug up something from the docs, which says this:
***
If you are using mod_perl then apache should run as user __BACKUPPCUSER__.

I do have lines in the httpd.conf which load the mod_perl module. So,
I DO have to run apache as the same user as the BackupPC software...
The only question that I have now is whether people would recommend
not loading mod_perl and then able to run Apache as a different user
than BackupPC.
Currently, the user that runs Apache has access to Subversion
repositories, so there is definitely a reason to separate them...
Question is whether it's anymore secure or if the way BackupPC works,
it won't matter in the end.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Yaakov.

Hi,
Now that I got my BackupPC working, I broke it again trying to secure
it further.
Previously, I was told here that I should not be running Apache web
server as the same user as running BackupPC.
So, I kept Apache running as 'apache' user and switched BackupPC (in
config.pl) to be backuppc user. I also switched all the directories
that have to do with BackupPC and previously owned by apache user to
being owned by backuppc user.
Now, when I try to go through the web browser, the server status page
give me an error:
*
Error: Wrong user: my userid is 48, instead of 498(backuppc)
This script needs to run as the user specified in $Conf{BackupPCUser},
which is set to backuppc.
This is an installation problem. If you are using mod_perl then it
appears that Apache is not running as user backuppc. If you are not
using mod_perl, then most like setuid is not working properly on
BackupPC_Admin. Check the permissions on
//usr/share/BackupPC/sbin//BackupPC_Admin and look at the
documentation.
*
From the error message, it almost sounds like I SHOULD have the user
that runs Apache be the same user that runs BackupPC. Is that true? If
not, then how do I fix this problem?
Currently, the //usr/share/BackupPC/sbin//BackupPC_Admin is owned by
backuppc user.
Thanks,
Yaakov.

If you didn't like the static DHCP idea suggested by Carl and need to match host names here are some ideas: Get the workstation list: 1a - Use the DOS command NET VIEW [/DOMAIN:Domain or WorkGroup Name] workstationlist.txt . Repeat for other domain workThis should work against all Windows versions as long as NetBIOS ports are available on the local nets for NT, AD domains (in compatibility mode) and dumb workgroups. By far the easiest way if your a *nix person. 1b - If there is a semblance of AD or NT domains, you can query them easily enough. 1c - You can check to see if you have a WINS server (client DHCP settings or smbclient -M option to browse) Let me know if you need some quick Windows scripts to query AD, LDAP, NT or WFW workgrpoups for machine accounts. I have some code snips that you may find handy. 2a - Once you have the individual workstation list, you can update DNS quickly (or temporarily updating the local host file on the BackupPC server) to get name resolution working. 3 - Client Authentication... You be on your own here if they have no domain membership or common workstation Admin account/password pairs. When you get that sorted, ensure that your BackupPC user is a member of 'Backup Operators' and has 'Logon Locally' privilege enabled (or set a standard now that you have a chance and create a standard Local User Domain Backup Account). You can check almost any privileged authentication against the IPC$ or ADMIN$ shares from Windows or Samba against the client: NET USE \\NETBIOSName\ipc$ * /USER:NetBIOSName\AdminAccount or 'smbclient -L //NETBIOSName * -U username' 4 - Use your workstation list output to create a script which can copy templated '/etc/BackupPC/pc/clienthost.pl' file for each client name should work. More advanced BackuPC admins can step in here. Good luck... Allen... -- / Break away from the Gates of Windows...

Hi Tomasz;
There was a thread on this earlier that got me going and here is a
summary from the archives to give you ideas:
http://search.gmane.org/search.php?group=gmane.comp.sysutils.backup.backuppc.generalquery=email+summary+daily
I was looking for the same thing to bug delinquent users and quickly
modified a simple contribution script by Jean-Michel Beuken.
(
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.sysutils.backup.backuppc.general/9055/focus=10040
)
It is executed via the hosts post dump option and uses built in
variables available to this post backup command.
$Conf{DumpPostUserCmd} = '/pathtobackuppc/bin/*BackupPC_notify $user
$xferOK $host $type $shares*';
The scripts runs every time a backup executes on the target host. You
could could make it a global config directive to affect all subscribed
hosts but this could get annoying. No news about backups is good news
for me.
To satisfy your mail with info about hosts didn't backup up any new
files requirement you could extend to do a 'tail
/pathtodatadir/pc/$host/LOG.~date~' into the email to get the raw lines
and send that out based on some policy you decide. perl or (ummm) awk
can be your friends here to search the log file.
Have fun... The possibilities are endless when it comes to email and
when you already have the data on hand.
