February 21, 20197 yr ok I find rysnc gives me this issue... in the pic but if I run the command line of one of the steps in my scripts it will ask me yes /no to add the server to the I guess authorization file then if I run my script it will run ok how do I make it so I don't have to run the terminal and run it manually... how can I make it soo script will automatically authorize the first rsync command I use is rsync -avzu -s --stats --numeric-ids --progress -e "ssh -i /root/.ssh/id_rsa -T -o Compression=no -x" root@tower:/mnt/user/Documents/ /mnt/user/Mikes\ Files/Documents/ >> /boot/logs/cronlogs/Backup_Docs.log
February 21, 20197 yr Author like this ? yes:rsync -avzu -s --stats --numeric-ids --progress -e "ssh -i /root/.ssh/id_rsa -T -o Compression=no -x" root@tower:/mnt/user/Documents/ /mnt/user/Mikes\ Files/Documents/ >> /boot/logs/cronlogs/Backup_Docs.log and not sure what ":" you using between yes and rsync as yours different from what I just did.. but is that what I type
February 21, 20197 yr Community Expert It is the "pipe" character. It is commonly used in linux and even DOS (Windows) at the command line. It basically means "take the output of this and make it the input of that". That character is on my keyboard as shift-\

You are prompted to answer the question because it is not already authenticated as a known host. You are running the same rsync backup script I am and a proper known_hosts is what prevents being prompted for the yes/no answer. I assume you have something like this in the 'go' file of both servers? # Copy SSH files back to /root/.ssh folder and set permissions for files mkdir -p /root/.ssh cp /boot/config/ssh/medianas_key /root/.ssh/id_rsa cp /boot/config/ssh/known_hosts /root/.ssh/known_hosts cat /boot/config/ssh/backupnas_key.pub > /root/.ssh/authorized_keys chmod g-rwx,o-rwx -R /root/.ssh
February 21, 20197 yr Author nope didn't work says broken pipe I did yes|rsync -avzu -s --stats --numeric-ids --progress -e "ssh -i /root/.ssh/id_rsa -T -o Compression=no -x" root@tower:/mnt/user/Documents/ /mnt/user/Mikes\ Files/Documents/ >> /boot/logs/cronlogs/Backup_Docs.log
February 21, 20197 yr Author my go file is what I basically did from what you told me hoopster and this server is my sisters comp normally I send to it from my unraid.. but I been trying to do the reverse... this is the go file on her unraid ##Setup drivers for hardware decoding in Plex #modprobe i915 #chown -R nobody:users /dev/dri #chmod -R 777 /dev/dri # Copy SSH files back to /root/.ssh folder and set permissions for files mkdir -p /root/.ssh cp /boot/FromTower/sshroot/TowerKey /root/.ssh/id_rsa cp /boot/FromTower/sshroot/known_hosts /root/.ssh/known_hosts cat /boot/FromTower/sshroot/TowerKey.pub > /root/.ssh/authorized_keys chmod g-rwx,o-rwx -R /root/.ssh #!/bin/bash # Start the Management Utility /usr/local/sbin/emhttp &
February 21, 20197 yr Author and like when I run the first rsync above... in the command line.. I asked yes or no so I do yes.. and then cancel then once I run the script it works but every so often stops working and I get the error..
February 22, 20197 yr Author my my unraid server.. that I typicall going to upload to the to my backupserver and my sisters unraid that go file is this #?Setup drivers for hardware decoding in Plex modprobe i915 chown -R nobody:users /dev/dri chmod -R 777 /dev/dri # Copy SSH files back to /root/.ssh folder and set permissions for files mkdir -p /root/.ssh cp /boot/config/sshroot/TowerKey /root/.ssh/id_rsa cp /boot/config/sshroot/known_hosts /root/.ssh/known_hosts cat /boot/config/sshroot/TowerKey.pub > /root/.ssh/authorized_keys chmod g-rwx,o-rwx -R /root/.ssh #!/bin/bash # Start the Management Utility /usr/local/sbin/emhttp &
February 22, 20197 yr Sorry for the hit-and-run answer, but, I have to leave for about four hours. I won't have time to look at this until then.
February 22, 20197 yr Make sure that after you say yes, copy the newly updated known_hosts file to your flash drive as it now contains the address of this new computer as a safe known host. Then next time you reboot the server, have the go script copy this new known_hosts file into the root/.ssh folder. Now you won't have the error any more and you can have the backup run by script in your /etc/cron.daily folder or weekly, or monthly or hourly if you really want with no need for keyboard entry. Your other errors about rsync unexpectedly closing the connection are an indication of network instability. If you get it a lot, this is something either on your network killing things, or on the broader internet. Between USA and China I see this sometimes on my daily backups in /etc/cron.daily I don't worry as the next day /etc/cron.daily runs again and always self heals the backups.

February 22, 20197 yr Author @Hoopster ok so I have to run the command first in terminal then copy it?? I did the command line... and then script works but ok what changes in the known_hosts file.. reason is.. I had this working before then I gave it to my sister the server.. then I had to refix ip address and other issues unraid had.. and I brought it back on my network...had to also change usb key as she only had a trial only had 15 days left on it when I gave it to her... so I copied it to a new usb her to test it before she buys it gonna purchase the 59 dollar one if she likes it as her mini server is just 4 drives... but does the known hosts save usb key or what does it save.. and I thought my go file copied to the root folder..as it was working a couple days ago.. I was rysncing… but power went out and when it booted up I wasn't able to rsync also those other errors are probably the other rsync folders... like what you showed me... what you did with yours sooo since I wrote a story lol what do I have to change or do now to my go file if anything? or how do I make sure it works... the emailing in the rysnc never worked for me which you have in your rsync.. I cant even get Notfications in unraid to email me on errors ... and then I have the other issues with rysnc not showing constant data transfer but im used to windows copying and Freenas's rsync which shows you current %done and still have issues with OpenVPN locking out unraid when trying to connect to PFsense… trying to make it automated so I can set it and forget it... as I wanna do it connect OpenVPN ---->rsync (over internet) ----> close openvpn but doing rsync over the network faster right now to back up everything... still learning this stuff.. almost a year I been playing with unraid
February 22, 20197 yr Author and after thinking about it and frustrated for unraid locking me out.. and I posted in general and bugs I think OpenVPN in unraid can only connect to OpenVPN on another unraid….. it cant connect to a OpenVPN server on a Pfsense machine to connect.. and then it mess's up unraid and locks out the entire machine till you physical shut it off
February 22, 20197 yr Author forgot to post the pic of the yes|rysnc so I re did it to show it didn't work 😞

How is anybody supposed to know what has already been said in all the different threads? You haven't even linked them. Crossposting has been considered a bad thing on message boards since long before the World Wide Web. It is impossible for people to coordinate their responses. People could waste a lot of time and effort just rehashing things that has already been discussed on the other threads. I am on mobile right now. I will try to clean up this mess later. Please stick to one thread.
February 22, 20197 yr Author reason I have different posts as they are totally different topics Rysnc with with the loosing Autghorization (this topic is different) OpenVPN locking up unraid connecting to PFSENSE (in General and Bug ) is only one I did twice a Rysnc OpenVPN with IF and ELSEIF statements is a totally different topic issue they are all different topics so the need for Different threads as they issuing Different Issues...
February 22, 20197 yr Author and reason I posted in Bugs and in General.. is no one knows the Answer in General.. so I posted in Bugs to see if the Unraid Programmers could figure out why OpenVPN locks Out Unraid … is the only reason.. since I don't think Unraid Programers read the general just the Bugs.. reason I asked in there since no one knew the answer in General.. cuz how I supposed to know when to post in bug or general

This will make it go back to the top of the unread threads. This is referred to as "bumping" the thread. Often people will simply post the word "bump" to bump.
February 22, 20197 yr Author well that's confusing well open vpn is a official plugin since its part of the community apps as I search is it not? and then states Report the issues in Bugs but also report it in releative so that means I gotta report in Bugs and Plugins then?
February 22, 20197 yr Author ok ill try bump next time.. so how do I move my topic out of general to OpenVPN plugin then?
February 22, 20197 yr Author @trurl could you please move my question then from general to plugins for OpenVPN since don't wanna get in trouble posting I don't see option for me to move my own message topic

You can very easily get to the correct support thread for any docker by clicking on its icon and selecting Support. You can also get to the correct support thread for any docker or plugin by clicking the support (?) icon for the docker or plugin on the Apps page. 2 minutes ago, comet424 said: @trurl could you please move my question then from general to plugins for OpenVPN since don't wanna get in trouble posting I don't see option for me to move my own message topic Is it the plugin, or the docker?
