Re: [BackupPC-users] DumpPreUserCmd commands only on full backups?
Actually, at work we are. I was just curious if this was available in backuppc.

It's not like you're saving them to tape. -- BlackBerryreg; DevCon Americas, Oct. 18-20, San Francisco, CA The must-attend event for mobile developers. Connect with experts.

On Fedora which I assume would be similar, the htpasswd file goes in /etc/Backuppc. It needs to be wherever the apache config file says it should be, for me it's in /etc/httpd/conf.d/BackupPC.conf It used to be in a file called httpd and probably is on yours, however, I recently upgraded to Fedora 15 and now it seems they've renamed it to a file called apache.users, either way, it's going to look for the file wherever the AuthUserFile directive in the configurations says.

This should be possible... according to the config.pl inline documentation (you have read it, right), the following variable is available to $Conf{DumpPreUserCmd}, $Conf{DumpPostUserCmd}, $Conf{DumpPreShareCmd} and $Conf{DumpPostShareCmd}: $type type of dump (incr or full) So just write a script with the above logic and pass it $type on the command line when called from one of the above 'Cmd' variables. -- BlackBerryreg; DevCon Americas, Oct. 18-20, San Francisco, CA The must-attend event for mobile developers.
