Ubuntu Servers :: Remote Backup Ftp Server With Confidential Data?

Feb 15, 2011

I already have an ubuntu backup server in my location and need this one server to be backed up remotely in another state. this other location is a helpdesk so there's a danger that they can gain access to confidential data. I'll be setting up this new server as an ftp server but need to set the ftp folder to only allow access to the backup server and me. Because its remote on the helpdesk side, they'll need some access to the file system but need to be completely blocked off from the ftp folder where all the data is at. How can I make sure I can keep them away from my data and still be able to retrieve or copy files over without permission issues between both servers?

Server :: MySQL Backup - Deal With Large Amounts Of Data?

Feb 15, 2011

we've been trying to become a bit more serious about backup. It seems the better way to do MySQL backup is to use the binlog. However, that binlog is huge! We seem to produce something like 10Gb per month. I'd like to copy the backup to somewhere off the server as I don't feel like there is much to be gained by just copying it to somewhere else on the server. I recently made a full backup which after compression amounted to 2.5Gb and took me 6.5 hours to copy to my own computer ... So that solution doesn't seem practical for the binlog backup.Should we rent another server somewhere? Is it possible to find a server like that really cheap? Or is there some other solution? What are other people's MySQL backup practices?

General :: Backup Script Causing Data To Be Lost On Main Server- RHEL?

Feb 15, 2010

i setup the following script ro run each night (12am) as a cron on the main server:

if mount | grep -q '/home';
then
rsync -ranv --delete /home/ 138.73.56.12:/home;

[code]....

the main server is running on a dell poweredge 2600. The script rsyncs to a virtualised duplicate running on a hp dl380. when i set this script up and begn running data started going missing from the main server. if new files had been created the files by staff they would go missing, if data was added to existing files prior to activating the script the new changes made to that file would be lost.i just cant understand why this happened. as soon as i turned the script off after a few days it was all back to normal but the data that had gone missing had gone missing.

i just wanted to know if this could be a disk read/write issue, was the script running too soon not allowing data to be written before it can be backed up? could it bee memory? i just dont know. another developed occured after a few days of all this happening, which was one of our hard disk from the main server started mis behaving and flashing amber (attention).

CentOS 5 Server :: How To Setup A Backup

Jun 27, 2011

on my server I have atMail and a intranet site being hosted using mySQL for the database locally, and obviously backing it up would be a good thing. I got the backup package from the list if you use the add/remove software called dump-0.4.etc.. can't seem to find much on how to use it, set it up, nothing. Granted I could be looking for the wrong thing which I'm sure is the case. As of now it's looking like a USB drive is going to be my only option, that will change in the future as this "project" goes further (we are a windows shop trying out Linux, and the next step is going to be adding another server that's a file server at that point we'll probably go to NAS for the backup and then transer that to a USB for offsite/secondary backup).

CentOS 5 :: Samba Server Backup For 5?

Jul 9, 2009

I have re-installed our operating system (CentOS 5) ,what is the best way to restore our Samba server? Can it be as simple as copying the smb.config and smbpasswd files back into the /etc/samba directory? That's what I am hoping. If I just copy the smb.config and the smbpasswd files back to the samba directory will the machine trusts, users and passwords just work? If not, what is the proper procedure for restoring. Actually i want to make CentOS 5.3 as my Domain Controller, I want to test all Scenario in case of any disaster of DC before putting it into production environment. I have some queries as:

1. Is CentOS 5 is more stable than RHEL 5 etc.

2. How can i take back up of entire samba server if need it in case of any disaster. How can i restore it.

3. How can i use logon scripts like GPO in windows servers.

4. How can add users in samba server and linux at one time with one command.

5. tell me any Web based samba administration tool other than SWAT.

CentOS 5 :: Create A Backup Image Of A 5.6 Server?

Dec 16, 2010

I have a CentOS 5.5 server that has just recently been updated to 5.6 running PostgreSQL 8.4 and Drupal for an internal website. The server is also acting as a shared network storage between the Linux server and Windows desktops with Samba.

I just recently purchased a license to run Symantec Backup Exec System Restore 2010 for Linux and the only operating systems that are supported are RedHat and Suse Linux.

Does anyone know of a nice open source solution that we can use to create backup images of the server?

In the event of a server crash, we want to be able to rebuild the server via a bit-by-bit backup image.

The CentOS 5.6 is 32bit

CentOS 5 Server :: Openssh 5.8p2 - Transfer Data From Other Server Through Scp It Gives Connection Refused?

Aug 1, 2011

I have configured openssh 5.8p2 with centos 5.6. My sftp is working fine with chroot environment but i am having problem with SCP. I am dealing with muliti Redhat servers. When i try to transfer data from other linux server through scp it gives connection refused. For e.g ssh 5.8 is configured on new server and i want to transfer files from old server which is using openssh 4.3 version.i created same username and password on new server as on old server.My sftp users on new server has no shell access but only sftp access. When i try to scp from old server to new server it gives error connection refused. Is the below configuration only for sftp and can't scp? According to google the configurations i found are for scp and sftp. Do i need to generate ssh keys by giving users on new server shell access, once created then stop shell access again, as i dont want to give shell access permanent for security reasons? but i want to use ssh keys for more security as well.

Port 22
PermitRootLogin no
1.override default of no subsystems[code].....

CentOS 5 Networking :: Server Lagging After Backup (RTL8111/8168B REV 02)

Jun 21, 2009

I have 2 dedicated servers, one with RTL8111/8168B (rev 02) and one with RTL8111/8168B (rev 01) both running centos 5.3, the problem is like this, all things run great on the dedicated server with NIC RTL8111/8168B (rev 02) until we run backup (cpanel backup) after the backup is finish the server lags , no high load, just lags, the server is a 8 GB ram, i7 quad core, so there is no load problem or someting like this, the second server has also cpanel on it and it has no lag but it has RTL8111/8168B (rev 01) , we think that the problem is with the RTL8111/8168B (rev 02) should we update the driver ?

Here is the output from it:

CentOS 5 :: Backup Script With TAR - Incremental Backup With Simple FTP To Another Location And Email Status

Jan 15, 2010

After I spent some time discovering The BIG BANG of Universe and The Meaning of Life :

I managed somehow to create a script to make some backup of files on server and TAR it and then FTP the archive to another location FTP server and then emails result.

It also measures time needed to complete it and deletes archive older than XX days (set in find -mtime +20) and makes incremental backup every weekday and FULL on Sundays (which suits me bcoz no heavy load).

Files for TAR to include and exclude are in txt files listed each line separate name:

Server :: Add New HDD (with Previous Data) In CentOS?

May 12, 2011

this is my fstab::

Code:

LABEL=/ / ext3 defaults 1 1
LABEL=/backup /backup ext3 defaults 1 2
LABEL=/boot /boot ext3 defaults 1 2

[code]....

Now while installing, I had 2 Hdds. at the time of partitioning, i used both as separate Hdd and made a /backup. I used that for my backups. That was RH9. Now I want to install Centos 5. and i wish to keep the /backup as it was. (as my cron scripts and others are written in this way)I wish that it will be mounted at the time of boot. And moreover, I can add a new hdd (using the manuals) but I need to keep the data.

Also the second question:: I have implemented a WiFi hotspot in a hotel with a Cisco WLC and several Cisco APs. Now I wish to restrict and log on access for both wifi and wired LAN using user names. Raduis is okey... with a mysql password database... I found a thing named hotex hotspot billing. But that's expensive. Also FCS's module is expensive too. I do not need billing, just access control. Any ideas on this?? It must be a linux based kind of baremetal package...

CentOS 5 :: 5.3 Hangs While Remotely Copying Data Onto Server?

Jan 25, 2010

Problem : centos 5.3 hangs while remotely copying data onto this server.

I have A centos 5.3 x86 Version installed on Xeon Quad core , running on 8 GB DDR2 RAM, RAID 1 confgured on SATA drives. this was old installation copy and It has many more things running on it.Therfore, I can't just reinstall it.

I have setup SAMBA PDC + ldap on it. I encounter that system hangs when I copy data into this server from LAN computers.

My troubleshooting steps :

1. I have checked for network issue , My network works fine when I transfer data between other LAN compuers.

2. Even I have tried confguring seprate LAN....

3. I thought their might be some problem with my SAMBA configuration, therefore I did data transfer from sftp .

Software :: Backup A Few Servers And A Bunch Of Desktops Onto One Backup Server?

May 10, 2010

Does anyone know of any decent enterprise level backup solutions for Linux? I need to backup a few servers and a bunch of desktops onto one backup server. Using rsync/tar.gz won't cut it. I need like bi-monthly full HDD backups, and things such as that, with a nice GUI interface to add/remove systems from the backup list. I need basically something similar to CommVault or Veritas. Veritas I've used before but it has its issues, such as leaving 30GB cache files. CommVault, I have no idea how much it is, and if it supports backing up to a hard drive rather than tape.

CentOS 5 Hardware :: Hard Disk Crash / Data Recovery In RAID1 Webhosting Server

Feb 1, 2011

We have had a hardisk crash in our RAID1 webhosting server running CentOS5 and Plesk. We first realized something was wrong when our main site didn't load but showed MySQL errors. We then found out that the system was in read-only state. Something that also happened the day before yesterday, but we could fix with a FSCK. Then the system worked well til around 18 hours later when it crashed with the same sympoms. So, we rebooted the server and wanted to do a filesystem check again. But the HDD wouldnt even load. It was gone. Unfortunatelly it was not realized that the second disk in the system was also not working any more for some time now. Fortunatelly we had our main site backed up externally though. So we could re-install a fresh box and mounted the two drives to the system. We checked the harddisk. One is practically empty (the older one), the other has almost only files in 'lost + found' but these are all "numbered", no real filenames or so.

Feb 16, 2011

I am trying to backup data files from a Debian Lenny server (in my office) to a second Debian Lenny box at my home. I was going to try rsnapshot configured for daily & weekly backups.My question has to do with access to the backup files. I can get into my hmoe server via ssh (specifically putty & winscp). If I need a specific file, is it easy to log into my home machine and simply find the file(s) I need in the directory tree? Is there some other (simple) method you would recommend instead?
