Hi - I've been playing around with Bacula lately, and am quite simply amazed. Kern, I've really got to hand it to you and your team - you have all put together an amazing piece of software. Thank you for many, many years to come, as I dig even deeper into Bacula.
I've become a real stickler for RPM-based distributions as of late, specifically RHEL and CentOS. I know that for RPMs, you can query based on file type of a package: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ rpm -qc httpd-2.0.52-28.ent.centos4 /etc/httpd/conf.d/welcome.conf /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf /etc/httpd/conf/magic /etc/logrotate.d/httpd /etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd /etc/sysconfig/httpd ...for files marked as configuration files in the RPM preamble. I'm sure this is possible to do with many other Linux distributions, as well. I was wondering if - before I re-invent the wheel here - someone has already started on a framework for backing up application-specific, user-modifiable files, such as in this example Apache's httpd.* files and such. I think that this would help someone who's in the situation of not wanting to back up an entire package, directory, or something of that nature - someone who simply wants to backup configuration files, for a drop-in replacement, when it hits the fan and comes time to restore. Has anyone looked into this at all? If so, I'd like to talk with you - if not, then I'd like to make some noise about doing something like this, because I can see how beneficial it might be. Thanks! -dant ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
