Adding Linux clients to backup: msg#00200

Subject: Adding Linux clients to backup

I have just installed BackupPC (2.1.0-3) on a Debian Sarge box.

I am now attempting to add a test Linux(Debian Also) to be backed up.

I have added the following to /etc/backuppc/hosts
192.168.1.4 0 backup_reports@xxxxxxxxxxxxx

Do I then need to create a "192.168.1.4" directory in /etc/backuppc/ ?

And then create a /etc/backuppc/192.168.1.4/config.pl ?

i.e.

$Conf{RsyncClientPath} = '/usr/bin/rsync';
$Conf{XferMethod} = "rsync";
$Conf{RsyncShareName} = "/";
$Conf{BackupFilesOnly} = ["/etc", "/var/www", "/home"];
$Conf{RsyncClientCmd} = "$sshPath -l root $host $rsyncPath $argList+";
$Conf{RsyncClientRestoreCmd} = "$sshPath -l root $host $rsyncPath
$argList+";

Is the "standard" method to run rsync on Linux clients? (I notice there
is an rsyncd option also)

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
MB
