How to make a backup from / ? (so the whole system).
I only have

in the lista.txt file but it doesn't seem to work. Last night it only backupped the databases.

 

Another question. What if I want this script to backup to a local folder? Is this a possibility?

 

I guess just changing the

in Franz his script will do it to backup locally.

My idea was to colocate 2 servers in the datacenter, but for the beginning this is to expensive for me. So I will start with colocate 1 server in the datacenter, create the backups in a local folder and copy them to the computer at home.

Any other suggestions are welcome

Rudolf.

 

Backups are finished, just checked, all files have been written to the local folder. But at the end the script gives me this error:

What does it mean?

 

The script is works well, but you should fix these lines on your blog

# $SSH $MYSQLDUMP
log "Dump OK. Starting SCP"
# $SCP/mysql-$i-$datum_x.sql.bz2 $dirname/

you have them commented out.

Some syntax indentation would make it more readable.

 

Hey,
That was the ticket Tibor, thanks! Ensuring that both boxes use the same account/password for the SQL Server service did the trick. Backups are now running properly between the servers. Again, many, many thanks!

cheapest remote server hosting service

I want to get a service that allow me to control a remote server and do things like surfing the internet plus installing Windows program.

I think it called dedicated server but I want something cheap per month and surf web using it.

 

Hi Franz,
When I want to do step 3 on the remote server
cat /tmp/id_dsa.pub >> ~/.ssh/authorized_keys2

I get this error:
“bash: /.ssh/authorized_keys2: No such file or directory”.

What should I do?

Rudolf.

 

Are you sure you typed in the ~ before /.ssh/authorized_keys2?

Code:

cat /tmp/id_dsa.pub >> [COLOR="Red"]~[/COLOR]/.ssh/authorized_keys2

 

Yes Falko I did that.

Any ideas to get this fixed?

Rudolf.

 

What's the output of

Code:

ls -la /root

?

 

This is the output:

 

Run

Code:

mkdir /root/.ssh
chmod 700 /root/.ssh

Then try again.

 

OK got the folder created, tnx Falko.

I use Ubuntu 9.04, how to get this working? I can't seem to connect as root only as admin user.

When I follow the steps on http://blog.it-podrska.info/2009/08/ssh-key-authentication/ and try to connect via ssh it still asks me for a password.

 

Did you enable the root account (i.e., set a root password)?
Are root logins allowed in your SSH configuration (etc/ssh/sshd_config)?

 

Falkon,
In the sshd_config is sais "PermitRootLogin yes" and the root password is set.

 

Hm... What's root's shell (it's listed in /etc/passwd)?

 

Falko,
It's like this:
