Anyway, back to the original point of my question, if I put:-
Match User=bak
ForceCommand rdiff-backup --server --restrict-update-only /
at the end of my sshd configuration on the backup server will it prevent
rdiff-backup doing anything but updates on any/every part of the
backup hierarchy?
From my reading of man page I think you are correct, but I suggest you
accept the position of 'restrict-update-only Tester In Chief' and let us
know how you get on! I would be interested to know if it causes any
problems when comparing or recovering files (but I don't think it
should). Can you use it when creating a new repository?
I take it you are not concerned about what a local root user might do on
the backup machine? How secure is your garage?!
