Hi,

I was wondering if it is possible to backup different directories on 1 pc as different users. Meaning take for example that I have a pc called 'boaboa' and on boaboa there are 3 users: 'user1','user2' and 'user3' with each their homedirectory /home/user1, /home/user2, /home/user3.

Sounds like you need to setup 3 extra hosts and use $Conf{ClientNameAlias} in those hosts config.pl to point to boaboa.

pc/boaboa/config.pl would contain an exclude for /home.

pc/user1/config.pl would contain:

$Conf{ClientNameAlias} = 'boaboa'
$Conf{RsyncShareName} = [ '/home/user1' ]; # or whatever the sharename is


Is it possible that each user can backup only his userdirectory without seeing the directories of the other users in the cgi interface? So actually i was wondering if i can add multiple config files in the pc/boaboa directory depending on the user.


Then, in the hosts file you can create these extra 3 hosts and give permissions to the correct user.
