Title: Backup pc
Post by: rrkelly on June 14, 2013, 03:25:48 AM

ok the link in the wiki for backup pc to contribs 7 repo is broken -- i have installed backup pc several times with complete success from the wiki
the epel link does work and installed the rpm --  i copied the the two sme 7 rpms needed from the yum cache of a working sme 8 server  and installed them with rpm -i    i did the signal-event backuppc-update but it does not work backup pc shows up under unknown instead of under administration on the far left and does not start -- this for friend so he can do backups from home
any idea's

Name 'SME 7 - contribs' \
BaseURL 'http://mirror.contribs.org/releases/obsolete/7.6/smecontribs/$basearch' \
