[BackupPC-users] BackupFilesOnly problem
2008-10-29 08:41:34
Hello from a rainy Barcelona,
I've just installed BakcupPC 3.1.0 from Sourceforge on a SUSE 10.2
platform. I am testing backup with a SUSE 11.0 client.
Everything has installed fine, no problems setting up the CGI
interface, etc etc.
I've set the $Conf{XferMethod} = ''rsync";
I want to limit the backup to just one area on the clientfor the
moment "/home/robin". This is just a standard directory (there is
only a / partition on the client). So In the CGI interface I set
BackupFilesOnly to "/home/robin"
Checking the /etc/BackupPC/config.pl file shows
$Conf{BackupFilesOnly} = {
'/home/robin' => [
''
]
};
There is nothing in the individual host configuration that will override this.
All other config parameters are standard.
However when I start the backup it tries to backup the whole of /.
Checking "ps -ef" output showed the following ssh command sent from
the server ....
/usr/bin/ssh -q -x -l root robin-linux /usr/bin/rsync --server
--sender --numeric-ids--perms --owner --group -D --links --hard-links
--times --block-size=2048 --recursive --ignore-times . /
No arguments for the "/home/robin" area seem to have been included.
Has anyone any ideas about why this isn't working?? I imagine i'm
missing something really obvious!
Thanks for your help!
Robin
