To make use of this backend you must set aws_access_key_id and aws_secret_access_key in your ~/.boto or /etc/boto.cfg with your Amazon Web Services key id and secret respectively. Alternatively you can export the environment variables AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID and AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY. """ did you export the AWS_* env vars beforehand at all? note to self: the manpage is missing the infos above about amazon s3 access auth completely. have to update manpage accordingly. ..ede/duply.net -- You received this question notification because your team duplicity-team is an answer contact for Duplicity. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~duplicity-team Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~duplicity-team More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
