I am just beginning to work out this method. I had made a comment about backing up MySQL databases using mysqldump a day or two ago. I have just recently managed to gert rsync + ssh working. I had great difficulty testing over a firewall! Now that I have it working, could you tell me how to get it to work in a script without having ssh on the other end asking for a password? I have created an rsync.scrt file. Would I maybe have permissions set incorrectly on that?
There is a great article on password-less logins at the following URL: http://www-106.ibm.com/developerworks/library/l-keyc.html Regards, Glen Scott -- --- Design Solution Limited t: +44 (0)1502 513008 f: +44 (0)1502 588622 e: info@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx w: http://www.designsolution.co.uk Nouvotech House, Harbour Road, Oulton Broad, Suffolk, NR32 3LZ, UK --- DS Knowledge Base http://faq.dessol.co.uk
