Re: [Nssbackup-team] [Question #129095]: Running backup from the command line
Question #129095 on Simple Backup changed: https://answers.launchpad.net/sbackup/+question/129095 Al_ posted a new comment: Further to the question, how to run from the commandline: I have not seen an option to install sbackup without GUI components for use on a server. May I politely suggest, if technically feasible, to split the sbackup package, e.g., in sbackup-core (=no GUI) and sbackup (GUI components, with dependency on sbackup-core)? Obviously I will then need to manually edit /etc/sbackup.conf. This does not seem difficult even without man entry for sbackup.conf; the configuration file on my Ubuntu desktop machine (with GUI) is self explanatory. And last, of course, many thanks for sbackup. My Ubuntu enjoys it daily; and I will enjoy it when the harddisk goes belly up.

Re: [Nssbackup-team] [Question #129095]: Running backup from the command line
Question #129095 on Simple Backup changed: https://answers.launchpad.net/sbackup/+question/129095 Status: Open = Answered Jean-Peer Lorenz proposed the following answer: Thanks for using SBackup. Beginning with sbackup 0.11.x the naming scheme was changed. It is now more consistent and intuitive. sbackupd was renamed since it's actually not a system deamon: 'sbackup' - the backup programm (was 'sbackupd') 'sbackup-config-gtk' - configuration gui written in GTK+ 'sbackup-restore-gtk' - restoration and snapshot handling (delete, upgrade) written in GTK+ HTH, Jean-Peer. P.S.: You can define/set up a cron job using the configuration gui (when running as root). Supported are simple schedules (e.g. daily, hourly) as well as custom cron expressions (e.g. 10 * * * *). -- You received this question notification because you are a member of Simple Backup Maintainers, which is an answer contact for Simple Backup. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~nssbackup-team Post to : nssbackup-team@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~nssbackup-team More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
