Re: [BackupPC-users] Failing hard at Rsync

Try it using the backup server user. Put your private key in your backuppc user's .ssh directory and then as root on your backup server run:

su - backuppc

and now that you are the backuppc user, try:

ssh root@clientHostName whoami

and see if that works. Once this works, you should be all set.

I should note that i successfully logged into the client machine via ssl from the backuppc server without needing a password;

"ssh -l root clientHostName whoami"

and it spit out root for me.
