Is it possible? I have a Cm3.1 S8400 that no longer has access via the services port, modem port, or web interface. I can however access it via the LAN and get to both CM and the shell but no http. I would like to get a good xln and security backup prior to rebooting as these 8400's are know to die upon reboot.

the files in Linux for xln are located in /etc/opt/defty . if you can get in via win scp or direct to Linux then you could copy the files.

The thread referred to is for r11 and r12

below is a linux command for cm3 and higher to put backups on the server's hard disk.

sudo backup -b -d /var/home/ftp/pub --verbose xln os security audix-tr-name-msg

cd /var/home/ftp/pub; ls -ltr | tail -4

Avaya. Too little or no help? Expensive?

BSH - that looks the same from both posts. The one I was most interested in was the ftp one.

sudo backup -b --verbose -d ftp://administrator:password@9.102.36.56/avaya/server -c --xln os security

I'll retry tomorrow but think I got an error saying "xln invalid switch". Is the above ftp backup command valid for CM3+?

Thanks!

need space between -- and the xln

sudo backup -b --verbose -d ftp://anonymous:hello@localhost/pub -c -- xln os security audix-tr-name-msg
