Hi Greg, I'm assuming the reason for this was that Robert's answer pretty much covered it. Most backup tools still in development, and I'm including rsync here, do support extended attributes, so you're covered when it comes to ACL. The main question becomes if you need the backup itself to be encrypted, and if yes you might want to look at alternatives to rsync. I heard good

I'd like to re-flag this. I got a single reply - and wondered if there were any other approaches that I haven't considered - or if someone wants to detail their process. Thanks again -Greg Backup is currently a pretty hot topic - but most of the discussion I've seen has been around backup of the AD and not about files on a share. However, if I'm backing up the files in a Samba

Hey there, what type of backup solution do you use on C7? Thanks in advance

So, I'm generally running my DC's in VM's on Xen [XCP-NG]. And I'm considering recovery from different disaster situations - say a crashed/corrupt DC. Or hardware failure. Yes, I could run a second VM with a second DC. But unless I setup another XCP server and put the VM on that - the biggest threat to the current VM/DC is the hardware it's running on. So, it really

Good evening from Singapore, Have you used Duplicati 2.0.4.5 to backup CentOS 7.6 1810 Linux Server? Is it good?

Hi all, I am looking in to ceph and cephfs and in my head I am comparing with gluster. The way I have been running gluster over the years is either a replicated or replicated-distributed clusters. The small setup we have had has been a replicated cluster with one arbiter and two fileservers. These fileservers has been configured with RAID6 and that raid has been used as the brick. If disaster

I've a small system that I use to support a number of churches. I provide web and email for them. My current server is running CentOS 6.3 with paired 1TB drives in a RAID1 configuration. It works well. One filesystem is very large, >500GB, and contains numerous large files: SQL, docs, church libraries in ebook and digital form, plus stored videos of church services. My problem is that

Hello List, we have a running (test) AD samba4 system running successful for several month. We are now trying to add more DCs to the mix and have a proper backup/desaster recovery strategy. Basically I wan't to adapt the samba_backup script found in the sources to backup everything via git into our repository. I understand that the best solution would be to tar everything before commit.

So, I'm trying to paw through the long set of smb.conf options - and it's rather daunting. I'm wondering what smb.conf options are most important/appropriate/common for mostly Windows XP/7/(possibly v8) clients.

So that was really helpful for me to understand that a lot more clearly. Thanks! [Many, many thanks @Plutocrat!!] But I'm still getting a similar failure. Let me give the command I'm using. doveadm backup -D -u user at abc.net \ ssh root at po.abc.net \ docker exec b3093cxxxxxx doveadm sync -D -u user at abc.net The "local" server is where the data/mail currently is. The

I know this has come up a bit in the past, but consider this situation: Two Samba4 DC's - and I want to "mirror" the data shares to the "backup" DC in case we lose the primary DC and it's file shares. [A cheap, dirty, poor-mans semi-CTDB. How did you ever guess that Red Green was helping me?!] The easiest way is probably rsync'ing the data. However, will that

Yeah, I could setup an extra XCP box - but at smaller setups, it really seems like overkill. So, it sounds like restores of the VM work "fine." How often do machine accounts reset their passwords? [This is the one that is most likely to be problematic. Rejoining the domain means a new profile. And that's a big PITA on the client side.] User password changes can simply be handled by

So I've done quite a lot of searching on the list and on the web - and perhaps my google-fu is really bad - but I can't find any real recipes on how to sync mail from the old server to the new. As an FYI - the old server is a CPanel/WHM setup on a VPS. The new is mailcow - which uses docker. However, I don't think either of these platforms is what's causing the issue - but
