Re: [BackupPC-users] backup localhost with rsync (root's password problem)

[<rom...@va...>]

When I try to execute the command line in a console and I put Ctrl + C to
cancel, I've got an error message :

rsync error: received SIGINT, SIGTERM, or SIGHUP (code 20) at rsync.c(260)
[sender=2.6.8]

Thanks for you advice.

Romain

The default rsync command uses rsync over ssh. For the localhost, SSH
isn't need. Edit the RsyncCLientCmd for this host, and put something
like this:

/usr/bin/sudo $rsyncPath $argList+

(idem for the restore command)

Then allow backuppc user to run rsync with sudo without password
(visudo)

it'll be a lign like this:

backuppc ALL=(root) NOPASSWD:/usr/bin/rsync
