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

[manydnah manydnah]

I removed my distribution-installed version and installed 0.5.18, but the problem persists; i.e it still prompts me for a password. When I enter the password it proceeds with a number of files, and then it prompts me for the password again. In total I am prompted for the password 5 times (it is accepted every time). Here is a log of what happens:

address@hidden:~# export PYTHONPATH='/usr/local/lib/python2.6/site-packages/'
address@hidden:~# duplicity --full-if-older-than 2W --no-encryption /etc rsync://username:address@hidden//volume1/backup/etc

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,
