Hi, I'm trying to backup from one machine to the other (automatically via cron) using rsync and ssh password-less public key authentication. I having been trying to set this up following an article in a Linux magazine[1] by only allowing the specific rsync command to run on the remote box. I am using the following rsync command: $ rsync -avz -e "ssh -i ~/.ssh/backup-key" /backup

Hello, I want mount directory of one server to another over internet. I was looking to NFS4, but there are no security mechanisms. I need encrypted connection using private key (something like SFTP). Or - if there is in CentOS repo (or EPEL) package, that can mount directory over internet using private key and make differential backup (like rdiff-backup). Thank you very much for links or other

Hi all, I''ve just implemented a [crude] manifest to apply a set authorized_keys file to the root account of a puppet client. class rootssh_test { file { "/root/.ssh/authorized_keys": owner => root, group => root, mode => 0600, content => template("rootssh_test") } } The template has two ssh id_rsa lines in. When the client applies

Hello! I have a box that monitors the surrounding environment and sends a signal to a debian machine when it is time to shut down, according to the developers of the box it uses and old standard of UPS signaling. It is super simple, it just changes the DCD status to high when it is time to shut down. Has anybody heard of this kind of signaling, i have googled without success. But maybe someone on

I've read man ssh and man ssh-keygen and some howtos and still am not getting what I expect. I can do ssh john at 192.168.15.3 and login with a password OK. I want to be able to do that with keys in preparation for running rsync with keys, so I created a key on router1, the machine I want to ssh from. routem at router1:~/.ssh$ lla total 20 drwx------ 2 routem routem 4096 2009-03-08 09:55 .

hi all I have generated the key in the source server(10.78.0.107) ssh-keygen -t dsa -C "root@10.78.0.107" I have added this key to authorized_keys2 of the destination server(10.78.0.117) cat id_dsa.pub >> /root/.ssh/authorized_keys2 but when I execute rsync -avz -e ssh root@10.78.0.107:/var/mail/ /var/mail in the destination server I asck me for the password How to avoid this in

Hi all. (I am sending this querry here because it is somehow relating to rsync. If i am wrong please pardon me.) I am doing following on these windowsXP and Vista. I am trying to get only incremental backup using "rdiff-backup" (that also uses rsync). I have installed gcc compiler and by following the steps given in http://katastrophos.net/andre/blog/2005/11/02/rdiff-backup-on-windows/

I'm rsync'ing an rdiff-backup repository to a different machine and I have a few questions I'm hoping you guys can help me out with. Should I use --archive? Or maybe -rlD instead? Can I restrict an SSH key to rsync? I can do it with rdiff-backup with command="rdiff-backup --server" but I can't figure out how to do it with rsync. The rdiff-backup repository I'm

Hi devs, recently I had to replace authorized_keys on several systems to enforce an access policy change. I was badly surprised that authorized_keys2(!) was still processed, which allowed some old keys to enter the systems again, because I wasn't aware of the file's existance on the server and use by sshd, since this "backward compatibility" isn't documented, not even a

Greetings, I've been looking through archives, googling, and reading through man pages to no avail for some time now. I believe I need some combination of rsync -u (update) and rsync --del, and I'm not quite sure how to get it. I'm looking to build a rough implementation of a multi-client rdiff-backup system; in order to do this I'm using rsync before rdiff-backup. (We'll

I do not know if this has been reported already (I searched the headers of the recent messages to r-devel) It seems that 'example' in R 2.11.0 has a problem when the help file does not contain any example.

Hello everybody, I have a problem. You may have the answer :-) I'd like to use openssh for an authentication service. But that gives me a user, whose ~/.ssh/authorized_keys file has about 15000 entries. With about 300 characters per line I'd get 4,5 MB of data. I believe that this length of file could lead to performance issues; so I'm looking for solutions. I already saw the

I've recently upgraded some of my machines from an ssh1 environment to an openssh one, and consequently, I'm now using the ssh2 protocol. I can't seem to get it to allow remote logins without prompting for a passphrase or password. Is this possible? I've created id_dsa and id_rsa files etc., using ssh-keygen and have copied the public information to the remote authorized_keys

Hi, i am new to rsync and i want to use rsync to emulate rdiff behaviour (because i can't install rdiff on the system). What i would like rsync to do is to generate a diff file (like with rsync --write-batch) but WITHOUT changing the destination file. This would allow me to store daily differential updates on the target (i think hardlinking would not help me much as the file is changing every

OpenSSH 3.1 Not really a bug, but an "undocumented feature". The default sshd_config file show the default setting for AuthorizedKeysFile as being: AuthorizedKeysFile .ssh/authorized_keys If you uncomment that default, it changes the "undocumented" setting for "AuthorizedKeysFile2", which is by default: AuthorizedKeysFile2 .ssh/authorized_keys2
