I went here http://lime-technology.com/wiki/index.php?title=UnRAID_Plugins and installed the Crashplan and the Crashplan GUI. After that I have no idea what to do. If there a lot more file editing and installing packages that have to go along with this plugin? I already run Crashplan on my Windows computer, will that be a problem when trying to access it on my unraid box? It "seemed" to have installed but everything I've tried just isn't happening. I've seen about 5 different posts indicating 5 different ways to install this and have no idea which way to go. The reason why I choose the plugin was because it seemed the easiest. I just want to install it, run it and set it up. Very confusing, I wish at least for Crashplan there would be one consolidated thread for EACH way to install it since there are obvious different ways.

Thanks.

 

All the info is in the plugin forum post linked to in the wiki.

 

Ultimately you now need to go to :

 

http://lime-technology.com/wiki/index.php?title=CrashPlan#Configuring_the_CrashPlan_engine_from_a_Windows_Machine

 

And follow instructions for connecting to the new installation to configure it.

 

Crashplan isn't an easy install on a headless server and won't be until crashplan themselves change how it works.

I am almost there. I did install the GUI and the main Crashplan PLG's but I just can't connect via SSH. It just bounces back to me saying NETWORK ERROR, CONNECTION REFUSED. Is SSH even installed? That was suppose to be installed via the plugins, right?

 

 

Only if *you* installed it. It's not part of core unraid and I don't know if it's part of the crashplan plg (probably not).

 

So sounds like the problem is you need to get openssh installed and running.

openssh is installed with the crashplan plugin

did you do the lines in the go file from the wiki how-to?

 

[ ! -d "/boot/packages" ] && mkdir /boot/packages
[ ! -d "/boot/packages/ssh" ] && mkdir /boot/packages/ssh
[ ! -e "/boot/packages/ssh/ssh.tar.gz" ] && /etc/rc.d/rc.sshd start && tar -zcvf /boot/packages/ssh/ssh.tar.gz /etc/ssh
[ -e "/boot/packages/ssh/ssh.tar.gz" ] && tar -C / -zxvf /boot/packages/ssh/ssh.tar.gz && /etc/rc.d/rc.sshd start

 

the 1st 3 lines are only needed one, but i kept them in there, they generate the ssh keys etc

We can put this to rest. I did eventually find out that SSHD wasn't starting when the server booted.
