Backup Central

Hi,

After trying rsync/rsyncd unsuccessfuly I tried TAR but :

Running: /usr/bin/ssh -q -n -l root <remote_machine> /bin/tar -c -v -f -
-C /Groupware-2 --totals .
Xfer PIDs are now 6759,6758
Host key verification failed.
Tar exited with error 65280 () status
tarExtract: Done: 0 errors, 0 filesExist, 0 sizeExist, 0 sizeExistComp, 0 filesTotal, 0 sizeTotal
Got fatal error during xfer (No files dumped for share /Groupware-2)
Backup aborted (No files dumped for share /Groupware-2)

The keys are good, from backup machine to remote /usr/bin/ssh -l root <remote_machine> work !?

Backup machine is behind a firewall and both machine have static IP and the /Groupware-2 exist
on remote machine.

Where is the problem ?

We use Linux Debian unstable and BackupPC 2.1.0

Sam.

The command from a terminal as root work :

/usr/bin/ssh -q -n -l root 82.127.32.214 /bin/tar -c -v -f - -C
/Groupware-2 --totals .

Perhaps this wil help...

Try the ssh command running as the same user as backuppc uses. I
suspect you have set up the ssh keys as root on the backuppc server.

Yes the keys are for root user, on remote machine we need root access to
able to read all files no ?

I will try keys as backuppc user.

...the problem is that the ssh command is run as the user *backuppc*,
not as the user *root*; you will find that you need to modify
~backuppc/.ssh/known_hosts to get this to work.

That username may vary in your installation, but that is certainly the
default.
