[BackupPC-users] Fwd: Minor update in the Samba Module
Good evening, First of al great product! :) At work I had to configure a backup server so I decided to use BackupPC because of the samba support and nice web interface. However our backup policy is somewhat different then normal... I think, because I couldn't find the functionality I was looking for: The setup: //host/DiskD/Projects/ here from all source files must be backup-ed but not the compile files and the documentation etc. //host/DiskD/MyDocs/ here all must be backup-ed but not some default windows crap The problem was that you can't enter and BackupFilesOnly and BackupFilesExcept at the same time and you can't enter the path in the Share because smbclient doesn't understand it. That's why I came up with this idea to let the Smb.pm handle the //host/share/path problem by splitting it into the Share and Directory section so you can add multiple rules for the same share with and use different Only and Except rules without the need to specify all possibilities. Excuse me for my bad perl skills but here is a proof of concept: http://pastebin.com/s1GsijU9 Notable changes are at lines: 55, 120+ 129, 137+ Didn't had time to test it though will be at work in about 8 hours so then I can see if all went well.

[BackupPC-users] New: BackupPC_extract
Good midday, Since we weekly want to store all backups on an external HD in 7zip format I created this script to exract the latest backup so I can later add it to a 7zip archive. You might also enjoy it. http://pastie.org/1847242 Cheers, Nick van IJzendoorn -- WhatsUp Gold - Download Free Network Management Software The most intuitive, comprehensive, and cost-effective network management toolset available today.

I'm assuming since you are zipping it separtely that his just exports a copy of the backup with all files accessible? (no tar?) Thanks, Richard Yes, it just rebuilds the whole backup you specified in the current work directory.

One minor nit pick. The header still makes 5 references to zip archive which I presume is left over from the original script you based yours on. It would probably be better to just remove zip from those instances. Thanks, Richard Updated, thanks for noticing. I also removed the time limit since we don't have the limit on a regular dump.
