Thanks a brazillion all!
There's a lot of good info here that I'll need to take some time to digest.
Amanda sure is a big sandwich.
While I'm processing it all, might someone point me to the syntax of what
might be called a 'compound DLE' ?
Instead of something like:
<code>
localhost /bin simple-gnutar-local
</code>
I've seen some entries with the following format:
<code>
host entry_name device_or_directory {
dumptype
include "regex"
exclude [append] "regex"
} somenumber someword
</code>
Though I haven't deciphered what somenumber and someword mean. It appears
that somenumber might be a priority and someword might be the
authentication method?
Is there a document somewhere that describes this syntax and options
available?
Again, thanks so much for everybody's responses! I think I'm off to a good
start now.
