... which will hopefully be the last part. Sorry that it took that long, but I didn't have too much time on my hands over the last two months or so. This is what should be the last stages of opening up the wiki: a) I have changed the account creation page: <http://wiki-m.centos.org/UserPreferences>. Please view that page while logged out of wiki-m. b) While doing so I have

Hi, I just purchased a new ThinkPad R61i since my R40 died. I previously ran CentOS 4 on my old one, but have loaded CentOS 5 on the new one. I'd like to add whatever I can regarding my hardware. I followed the directions for adding a laptop page, but I was never promoted to enter any information after choosing the laptop template. I did login with my username first as well. The page would

Hi all, I'd like to get added to the EditGroup for wiki.centos.org and perhaps projects.centos.org. I'm interested in adding content periodically throughout wiki.centos; most likely in the HOWTO areas, but am happy to do reorganization and cleanup as-needed. On the projects side I'd like to create a project for the i586 on CentOS 5 section. Thanks, Ray -- Ray Van Dolson <rayvd

BackupPC released 3.2.0 as a stable version a few weeks ago. The most current release is 3.1.0 in the testing repository. Are there any plans that this will be updated to 3.2.0 in the repo some time down the road? Also, will the BackupPC package be moved out of testing and into extras ever? Or are there reasons behind this that are more complicated, making it not "stable" to be in

Good News, everybody! Maybe not yet, though :) There are two things I'd like to get at with this mail. a) This also has something to do with Ned's mails from yesterday - we have two FAQs at the moment (on www.centos.org and on wiki.centos.org) and we want to unify those, if possible on the wiki. The one feature the www version has and the wiki one doesn't is comments - and we really

Hi, everyone. I wrote a guide for installing and configuring BackupPC on a CentOS host using rsync as the primary backup method. As best as one can proof read their own writing, I did so, but please read through and feel free to correct and change any typos. <http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/BackupPC> Regards, Max

I am interested in understanding the thing with BackupPC. What does it have compared to basic rsync? - It has a webui Is it like a central backup server? if so, how it works with windows clients(if it is?) Just want to make sure.. I understood right. Why did you choose this over other software? Thanks, Eliezer On 20/09/2015 16:51, Timothy Murphy wrote: > I'd be interested in any

I'd be interested in any corrections or comments on the following instructions (basically for myself): We assume that BackupPC has been installed: sudo yum install BackupPC 1. BackupPC must be run by the user backuppc. Accordingly the lines User apache Group apache in /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf should be changed to User backuppc Group backuppc 2. The user backuppc must be able to

There is an upgraded BackupPC in the testing repository. It is version 3.0.0, which was released in January. The setup differences between version 2.1.2 and this version is that some file directories have shifted locations: 1. /var/lib/backuppc/conf is now instead /etc/BackupPC/ 2. /var/lib/backuppc/log is now /var/log/BackupPC =============================== If you are upgrading ... you

1. I'm running - or trying to run - BackupPC under Centos-5.2, and have been looking at various BackupPC HOWTOs and tutorials. I see that the "Falko" tutorial at <http://www.howtoforge.com/linux_backuppc> recommends (on page 3) that one should enter one's username, "falko" in this case, as the user in /etc/BackupPC/hosts . Other tutorials suggest one should use

Dear Developers First of all I would love to thank you for a nice tool I had been using rsync within backuppc project to backup my remote hosts. It had been working fine until the moment (as I think) whenever I moved RAID to another box and now the source directory (/raid/research) is now actually NFS mounted. Now backup (rsync process) stalls and sleeps indefinitely On the backup server:

Seems like a packaging bug in EPEL. Fedora does this
