First, the client specifies the host target. client is the hostname, and possibly username, necessary to access the filesystem on the target machine specified by tree. client: r...@some.example.com For example, the above client directive instructs Dirvish to use the system named some as the target and connect as the root user. If you omit the user, Dirvish will connect as the user running the dirvish binary, generally the root user. client: 192.168.25.1 As demonstrated above, you can also specify the IP address of the target system. Last, you must specify which path you want to backup with the tree directive. Generally this will be aligned with a filesystem boundary, but you can backup any path you wish. client: r...@sarah.example.com tree: / xdev: 0 index: gzip Regards, Rich _______________________________________________ Dirvish mailing list Dirvish@dirvish.org http://www.dirvish.org/mailman/listinfo/dirvish
