Re: [Duplicity-talk] Specifying rsync password in URL

[edgar . soldin]

You could scan the rsync backend source, for where it gets it's password from...
I looked at recent cvs version and to me it seems to get it from the url, see
http://is.gd/1c4DK

I'd suggest getting the recent stable 0.5.18 and in case it still does not work putting some debug printout in rsyncbackend.py to find out what's going on.

It looks like he's using the absolute path URL for rsync, and I don't
see any issues with that, unless he intends to use a module instead.

A lot has changed in the last several versions.  I would suggest going
to http://duplicity.nongnu.org/ and downloading the 0.5.18 version and
installing that.  Don't go for the 0.6.0 version just yet.  It has
issues that we are chasing.

...Thanks,

Hi!

I'm using duplicity in a backup script with the rsync backend. I've
specified both the username and password in the URL given to duplicity, but
it still prompts me for a password. This is the command that I'm using:

duplicity --full-if-older-than 2M --no-encryption /etc
rsync://username:address@hidden//backup/etc

What am I missing?

I'm using duplicity 0.5.09, which is what came with my distribution (Ubuntu
9.04).
