I have installed the update, and re-installed Windows Live Messenger. smbclient -L \\\\mylaptop -U MACHINE\\myusername works OK. BackupPC works OK. Gets the thumbs up from me.

Try and restart the webconfig service so that it knows about the BackupPC alias

Code:

service webconfig restart

Thanks 3.2 seems to be working well. One question I have it working with local and remote hosts doing rsync or smb. Now I like to setup a connection to a remote host over ssh. That seems to be a problem. I have followed the instructions and it expects me to setup the keys under the backuppc user though that account is set as a "Nologin" account. What do I do now? Thanks

Hi Augustynr, can you post your existing BackupPC user details?

Code:

grep backuppc /etc/passwd

you can modify the backuppc account to give it shell access. Note i've also added it's home folder which is set to /var/lib/BackupPC, change to whatever you wish

Code:

usermod -s /bin/bash -d /var/lib/BackupPC backuppc

Great package. Allready got it working; but here are some tips for the chalenges I encountered:

PAR-Support:
Although there are no RPM's for Clearos 5.2, you can build them yourself (Install development-tools first) with this script:

Code:



wget http://garr.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/parchive/par2cmdline-0.4.tar.gz

wget http://sage.math.washington.edu/home/binegar/src/par2cmdline-0.4-gcc4.patch

tar zxf par2cmdline-0.4.tar.gz

cd par2cmdline-0.4

patch <../par2cmdline-0.4-gcc4.patch reedsolomon.cpp

./configure

make

make check

make install

cd ..

Backing Up Administrative shares on Win7 machines:

Enable it with this registry-file; because natively they are disabled and UAC blocks access:

Code:



REGEDIT4



[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System]

"LocalAccountTokenFilterPolicy"=dword:00000001



[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanServer\Parameters]

"AutoShareWks"=dword:00000001

So far my bits. On my wishlist are selective file/folder selections; because from some drives I wish to backup only some select folders. And no, i don't wish to create a share for each selection
