HAHA that is what i was looking for the outputs i knew webmin would never overlook something like that. Thanks here is the errors that come up which is wierd because i can login as rmvg from putty which is also ssh right? OH but wait there dosent seem to be a password field am i missing some thing here. Do i need a passwordless account? how do i make one of those and how do make it secure? DUMP: shoemasters.com: Connection refused DUMP: login to shoemasters.com as rmvg failed. ----- Original Message ----- From: Jamie Cameron <jca...@we...> To: web...@li...

You can monitor its progress in the Running Backup Jobs section on the module's main page, and will be notified of its final status via email. > > Here is the log agian > > 1142003327.25225.0 [10/Mar/2006 08:08:47] rmvg 1ad2fa85a13bd9f92653b93db68eb7f0 68.146.204.152 fsdump backup.cgi "bgbackup" "-" "-" after='' before='' comp='2' days='*' dir='/home' email='lu...@co...' enabled='0' extra='' follow='' fs='ext3' hfile='/home/rmvg/testbak.min' honour='0' host='computerking.ca' hours='0' huser='rmvg' id='17781141953210' label='' level='0' mins='0' months='*' multi='0' pass='japangirl' remount='0' reverify='0' rsh='/usr/bin/ssh' subject='webmin backup' update='0' weekdays='*' Running the backup in the background isn't as useful for debugging, as you don't get to see the output from the dump or tar command. It is better to instead click on the backup from the main menu, then hit the Backup Now button.. this will show you what is really going on. - Jamie ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by xPML, a groundbreaking scripting language that extends applications into web and mobile media.
