similar to: CentOS 5.0 /proc Backup/Restore

Hello, I have been using mondorescue to backup to dvd for several months now without any problems. Since upgrading to Centos 4.4, I now receive a few errors. The errors are for files in /var/named/chroot/proc. I guess these files change so when I do a differntial backup they aren't there and result in errors. (Never got any errors before and I think these files were there in 4.3) If I

I have restored my home directory in the past using rsync but never the entire system. If I rsync / (on my usb drive containing the backup) to / on the computer with a fresh install of the OS, what problems will I run into? What about links? I am presently triple booting 3 linux distros and want to delete one to install something else. The distro I'm installing will be on 3 partitions (/,

What are the users here opinions on enteriprise grade opensource software for doing backups, as an alternative to bakbone or veritas. We just have basic requirements, i.e backing up nfs servers. --

Hi, Is it true you can run Ethernet over USB between 2 machines? I have 2 machines running CentOS 5.0 and a simple type A male to A male cable. I don't see in the network setup gui how to set it up. Is there a particular device I should select? What I see relating to USB is: KL4USB101 USB Ethernet driver Pegasus/Pegasus II USB Ethernet driver USB CDC Ethernet driver

This may be slightly off topic. I am using FreePBX, and using it's backup feature. Here is the question part: I would like to copy my backup off the asterisk server. >From your experiences, which approach seems more resilient to failure: Push the backup from asterisk to another server using STFP or FTP? Pull the backups from asterisk from another server using SFTP or other? The

I use rdiff-backup, but I hesitate to recommend a tool that has been unsupported for over 6 years and does have quite a few bugs. --

While playing with the graphic card drivers, I broke up the system and now I've a kernel panic with not syncing error. I did backup the system with mondorescue but I forgot to write the iso image files to the DVD rom. Can I burn the ISO file in rescue mode or in CentOS livecd environment? Already tried in the LiveCD env, but, as soon as I eject the live CD to put a blank DVD, the system halts

Hi, I need to set up a small server for a group of ~10 employees (all using Windows 2000/XP, used to use a windows 2000/exchange setup). I have a linux server already running CentOS 4, so I'd like to do all I can with this. I thought about using Samba for file/print sharing and OpenXchange (commercial version) to have a nice collaborative/mail/calendar/etc server. Of course, it would

Hello All, I guess it is very common for administrative purpose, to dump and restore a CentOS 7 system. I usually use dump/restore commands. However, I?m having trouble to handle installing bootloader and creating initramfs for C7 system. Does anyone know a good document source that details those procedure? Thank you, Xinhuan Zheng

Hi, This might sound like a n00b question, but I've honestly never done this with a Linux machine... (it is running Centos3) We have a 1U mail server with two 36GB SCSI drives in a hardware mirror config. There's no more room for any other drives in the case. It's filling up, so we now have two 74GB drives ready to take their place. Possible solutions that I've come up

Hi, After some months of configuring and testing a small server, think that would be nice to make a full server restore-point image in order to recover it if something goes wrong in the future, just restoring the image back and not making the full install and configure process all over again. The server uses Logical Volumes. I was thinking on using the CentOS LiveCD and then use dd command to
