Bad command line parameters.
Usage:
bbackupd-config config-dir backup-mode account-num server-hostname
working-dir [backup directories]
Parameters:
config-dir is usually /etc/boxbackup
backup-mode is lazy or snapshot:
lazy mode runs continously, uploading files over a specified age
snapshot mode uploads a snapshot of the filesystem when instructed
explicitly, using bbackupctl sync
account-num (hexdecimal) and server-hostname
are supplied by the server administrator
working-dir is usually /var/bbackupd
backup directories is list of directories to back up

#

#
# This excludes the directory /home/guest-user from the backup along with all mp3
# files, except one MP3 file in particular.

# explicitly mentioned in a AlwaysInclude directive. However, Box Backup
# does NOT scan inside excluded directories and will never back up an
# AlwaysIncluded file or directory inside an excluded directory or any
# subdirectory thereof.
#
# To back up a directory inside an excluded directory, use a configuration
# like this, to ensure that each directory in the path to the important
# files is included, but none of their contents will be backed up except
# the directories further down that path to the important one.
#
# ExcludeDirsRegex = ^/home/user/bigfiles/
# ExcludeFilesRegex = ^/home/user/bigfiles/

===================================================================
bbackupd basic configuration complete.
What you need to do now...
1) Make a backup of $enc_key_file
This should be a secure offsite backup.
Without it, you cannot restore backups. Everything else can
be replaced. But this cannot.
KEEP IT IN A SAFE PLACE, OTHERWISE YOUR BACKUPS ARE USELESS.
2) Send $certificate_request
to the administrator of the backup server, and ask for it to
be signed.
3) The administrator will send you two files. Install them as
$certificate
$ca_root_cert
after checking their authenticity.
4) You may wish to read the configuration file
$config_file
and adjust as appropriate.
There are some notes in it on excluding files you do not
wish to be backed up.
5) Review the script
$notify_script
and check that it will email the right person when the store
becomes full. This is important -- when the store is full, no
more files will be backed up. You want to know about this.
6) Start the backup daemon with the command
/usr/local/sbin/bbackupd$daemon_args
in /etc/rc.local, or your local equivalent.
Note that bbackupd must run as root.
__E
if($backup_mode eq 'snapshot')
{
print <<__E;
7) Set up a cron job to run whenever you want a snapshot of the
file system to be taken. Run the command
/usr/local/bin/bbackupctl -q$ctl_daemon_args sync
__E
}
print <<__E;
===================================================================
Remember to make a secure, offsite backup of your backup keys,
as described in step 1 above. If you do not, you have no backups.
