Ludovic,
I spent some more time today trying to get the Debian version of
BackupPC working for me. I ended up putting it into a virtual host which
has suexec for backuppc user and group. I had to recompile the apache2
package to fix the suexec docroot to allow it to run applications
outside of /var/www. Perhaps my solution will be useful to others.
Recompile Apache2:
apt-get source apache2
apt-get build-dep apache2
cd apache2_2.0.54
edit debian/rules and change the --suexec-docroot to /
dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -b
dpkg -i ../apache2_2.0.54-4_i386.deb
dpkg -i ../apache2-common_2.0.54-4_i386.deb
dpkg -i ../apache2-utils_2.0.54-4_i386.deb
dpkg -i ../apache2-mpm-prefork_2.0.54-4_i386.deb
Disable sgid on index.cgi:
chmod u-s /usr/share/backuppc/cgi-bin/index.cgi
Fix permissions on cgi-bin:
chown backuppc:backuppc /usr/share/backuppc/cgi-bin
Modify /etc/backuppc/apache.conf:
<VirtualHost *>
ServerName backuppc
SuexecUserGroup backuppc backuppc
DocumentRoot /usr/share/backuppc/cgi-bin
Alias /backuppc /usr/share/backuppc/cgi-bin
<Directory /usr/share/backuppc/cgi-bin>
AllowOverride None
Options ExecCGI MultiViews Indexes
SymLinksIfOwnerMatch IncludesNoExec
DirectoryIndex index.cgi
AddHandler cgi-script .cgi
AuthType Basic
AuthGroupFile /etc/backuppc/htgroup
AuthUserFile
/etc/backuppc/htpasswd
AuthName "BackupPC admin"
require valid-user
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
