Hi guys. I'm excited to get backuppc configured but just have a couple n00b questions that I can't find answered.
While the charm of OSS is that the code is easily accessible, I've found that most of the documentation steps refer to editing curly bracket objects, which is great for developers, but not-so-great for everyday administration: Rsync/Rsyncd Configuration $Conf{RsyncClientPath} = ''; Path to rsync executable on the client $Conf{RsyncClientCmd} = '$sshPath -q -x -l root $host $rsyncPath $argList+'; Full command to run rsync on the client machine. The following variables are substituted at run-time: And the GUI actually has a drop-down list for choosing the type of backup: Is there another version of the docs somewhere that is updated to walk a new user through the config based on options available in the GUI? Second question: why are there separate choices for rsync and rsyncd? Is the second option running the rsync demean on the client instead of the server?
