Duplicity restore full backup

This article will guide you on steps to perform a Duplicity-restore full backup. #Duplicity is an efficient #backup application.

#rsync is a protocol built for Unix-like systems that provides unbelievable versatility for backing up and synchronizing data. It can be used locally to back up files to different directories or can be configured to sync across the Internet to other #hosts.

Incremental Backup captures only the changes made since the last incremental backup. Saves both time and #storage space, and ensures that your backup is up to date. Differential Backup captures only the changes made since the last full backup, not since the last differential backup.

When a normal or full backup runs on a selected drive, all the files on that drive are backed up. This, of course, includes system files, application files, user data — everything. The downside of normal backups is that they take a very long time to run, and in some cases this is more time than a company can allow.

To Use Duplicity with GPG to Securely Automate #Backups on #Ubuntu:

1. Install the Prerequisite Packages.

2. Download and Install Duplicity from Source.

3. Create SSH Keys.

4. Create GPG Keys.

5. Run an Initial Test.

6. Create Your First Backup.

7. Restore a Backup.


How to install OBS on Linux Windows and MacOS

This article will guide you on steps to #install #OBS on #Windows. Also, we saw some common errors that we came across while installing OBS.

Open Broadcaster Software (OBS) is a free and open-source cross-platform streaming and recording program built with Qt and maintained by the OBS Project. There are versions of OBS Studio available for Microsoft Windows, macOS, and Linux distributions. OBS is funded on Open Collective.

As a standard Windows application, OBS should run fine on Windows 10 without any issues in the core program. However, OBS makes heavy use of advanced hardware features, particularly on your GPU such as texture sharing and hardware encoding. Windows 10 will come with new #drivers for your hardware, including your #GPU.

To set up OBS for #streaming:

1. Run the auto-configuration wizard. When you load OBS Studio for the first time you should see the Auto-Configuration Wizard.

2. Set up your audio devices. By default, OBS Studio is set to capture your system default desktop audio device and microphone.

3. Add your sources for video.

4. Test your stream and record settings.


FileZilla connection closed by server

This article will guide you on how to resolve #FileZilla connection closed by #server. Also we discussed about the causes for the FileZilla connection getting closed by the server.

If your computer cannot connect to that server, then either your FTP software is not working correctly, or something on your #computer (probably a #firewall or other security software) is blocking all #FTP connections. You may want to try using other FTP software such as the free FileZilla.

In general, connection refused #errors are generated during a connect system call when an application attempts to connect using #TCP to a server port which is not open.

To fix FTP Connection refused error:

1. Make sure ftp server installed. Make sure ftp server installed and service is running.

2. Is ftp server running (is port 21 open)? Login to ftp server using ssh and try to telnet port 21 (to see port is open or not).

3. FTP user permissions.

4. Security or Firewall.
