Hi,

I hope someone can help me out. I'm trying to make a automated backup of my Kubuntu home directory to my Bubba|TWO server. I'm just starting to know Linux a bit, so it probably looks silly....

This is what I did:

On my Kubuntu machine I added software called rsync and Gadmin-Rsync (which is a graphical interface for Rsync). Secondly I logged in my Bubba|Two using ssh. Then I changed to root-user and used the command

Code: Select all

apt-get install rsync

. I changed back to the login user and made a directory at /home/<user>/private/Backup.

In Gadmin-Rsync I made a backup job;

Code: Select all

Source directory or file: /home/<local-user>/Documenten/test.pdf
Destination server: <Bubba|TWO IP-address>
Destination directory or file: /home/<Bubba-backup-user>/private/Backup
Include pattern: (none)
Exclude pattern: (none)
Include in backup: (selected)
Delete destination files that does not exist in source: (not-selected)
Remote username: <Bubba-backup-user>
Remote port: 22
Private key for remote server: /root.gadmin-rsync/keys/<Bubba-backup-user>.<Bubba IP-address>.key

When I start the backup-job the backup-log says 'failure' at the 'status'-tab and my backup-progress tab is filled with the following text:

ssh_askpass: exec(/usr/bin/ssh-askpass): No such file or directory
ssh_askpass: exec(/usr/bin/ssh-askpass): No such file or directory
ssh_askpass: exec(/usr/bin/ssh-askpass): No such file or directory
Permission denied (publickey,keyboard-interactive).
rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (0 bytes received so far) [sender]
rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(600) [sender=3.0.5]

Can someone help me out?
