Yet another update: Okay, maybe this is what had gone wrong before: The "test" function works without a colon, but the actual back up resulted in the following error. With the colon back in, the backup went ahead fine. Anyway, I'm just happy to know one option that works for what I'm doing (sch

I am not sure why the colon is needed for you. It works without the colon for me and the directory is always absoulute as in ssh://username:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/home/user/backupdir I will try to investigate this how GnomeVFS handles that colon and try to come up with a good way to explain when it is

Thanks. Documentation is very important once an application is useful and popular! Thank you for sbackup. I will file a doc bug, but there is also a programming bug, it seems to me: the sample string in the ssh:// box is wrong. In my version, it reads: ssh://username:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/remote/dir

Aha. ssh://robert:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/robert Something lke that works for me. But the sample string given in the dialog box is not of that format at all! There is no colon at the end of the host (contrary to ssh convention) in the example. Moreover, there is no indication that an absolute p

Hi! You can open a terminal and type: sudo sbackupd You'll se the error message there. By the way, are you putting the right path on ssh string connection? ssh://robert:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/ --> it's missing the directory part, something like that: ssh://robert:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/robert I

That is a shame about shared key logins, but I've also tried with a target that does not. I've also tried erasing root's known_hosts. The only difference is that when pressing the "test" button I got a dialogue box warning me that it was an unknown host. I chose to log in anyway, and then got t

The problem most likely is that ssh key of the server has changed and Gnomevfs rejects connecting to that server on such basis. Try erasing /root/.ssh/known_hosts and see if that helps. ** Changed in: sbackup (Ubuntu) Status: Needs Info => Confirmed -- sbackup remote target fails https://

what do you mean by "ssh pipe"? What exactly are you trying to write into the URL field? (mask the password obviosely) There is currently a bug that shared key logins via ssh do not work correctly. Only username/password authentification is currently supported. ** Changed in: sbackup (Ubuntu)
