But I want to go even farther: how I can > automate the process to put into cron? You can authenticate based on the peers uid since you are running the command on the server. The files where you set this up are pg_hba.conf and pg_ident.conf in /var/lib/pgsql/data. You can also use a ~/.pgpass file, but using the uid base authentication is probably safer. Once you do this you should be able to just put the dumpall command in cron. Though you might also want to do some sanity checking to make sure the dump succeeded (in case the disk filled up or something) and send a message if things look wrong. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
