I have a host configuration file like this: $Conf{ClientNameAlias} = 'localhost'; $Conf{XferMethod} = 'rsync'; $Conf{RsyncShareName} = '/home/jeixav'; $Conf{RsyncClientCmd} = 'sudo -u jeixav $rsyncPath $argList+'; $Conf{RsyncClientRestoreCmd} = 'sudo -u jeixav $rsyncPath $argList+';
I would like to specify the user account jeixav once as a variable, rather than having it "hardcoded" three times, but I'm don't know how to do this. Going through the BackupPC's config.pl file, it seems as though the variable called $user should help, but using this variable as shown below doesn't work. $Conf{ClientNameAlias} = 'localhost'; $Conf{XferMethod} = 'rsync'; $Conf{RsyncShareName} = '/home/$user'; $Conf{RsyncClientCmd} = 'sudo -u $user $rsyncPath $argList+'; $Conf{RsyncClientRestoreCmd} = 'sudo -u $user $rsyncPath $argList+'; I am using BackupPC as packaged with Debian 5.0.3 (lenny). ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Come build with us!
