Peace of Mind Backups

Q. Can I have direct access at the command line to my Backup Area.

A. Yes

First changes directories to where DelatCopy lives:

cd "\Program Files\Synametrics Technologies\DeltaCopy"

Then when in this directory:

rsync.exe  -v -rlt -z -e ssh "/cygdrive/C/localdir/" " This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it :/remotedir/"
Putting a "/" at the end of  "/cygdrive/C/localdir/" will put everything inside"localdir"directly into "remotedir"

rsync.exe  -v -rlt -z -e ssh "/cygdrive/C/localdir" " This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it :/remotedir/"
NOT putting a "/" at the end of  "/cygdrive/C/localdir" will put "localdir" and everything under it into "remotedir" as "remotedir/localdir"

You need to have DeltaCopy installed on your PC. DELTACOPY

You need an account on our Backup Server which will be "username"

You will need a password.

And the first time you run this command you will need to accept our encryption certificate.

Q. Can I have direct access on the Backup Server to get files back.

A. Yes

Using MUTT on the server from an SSH connection the following command should be used.

cat /home/backup.txt | /usr/bin/mutt This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it -s 'Backup file for you, please check.' -a home/samba/shares/office/somefile.doc

The file name for your file will differ as well the path. That is why this is best done by some one in your business with IT experence.
