Hi list,

Thank you all for your  inputs, I am trying pgbacrest with Enterprised DB.
Locally pgbackrest works for  EDB but when I am trying for remote
repository I am facing an issue ( from the remote host to  EDB server
password less authentication part )

Trying to  use a remote host  as Repo Server I am facing the issue of
passwordless  authentication(Public key private key).

1.  From the EDB server  I  added the user pgbackrest directory and
generated ssh-keys and copied the id_rsa.pub   to  the Repo server
(pgbackrest user's .ssh dir with necessary permissions)
everything(passwordless auth) working to one side.

>From the EDB Postgres Advanced Server nodes
$ sudo -u enterprisedb ssh pgbackrest@backup-server

This works from  EDB server machine without any issue(password less auth
works)



2 But   from the reposerver
$sudo -u pgbackrest   ssh enterprisedb@EDB_Server_IP       unable to do
password less auth( Its asking password for enterpridb@EDB_Server )

How to do the passwordless auth  from the  Repo server to the EDB server
for the default "enterprisedb" user of  EDB ? ( enterprisedb user doesn't
have any home dir  I mean /home/enterprisedb, so I am not sure where to
create .ssh dir and authorized_keys for  passwordless auth  )

Any one who has already tackled this kindly guide  me on how to achieve
this .


Thank you,
Krishane
