13 ## (how to encrypt and optionally sign the backups)
15 ## WARNING: old (pre-0.9.4) example.dup used to give wrong information about
16 ## the way the following options are used. Please read the following
19 ## If the encryptkey variable is set:
20 ## - data is encrypted with the GnuPG public key specified by the encryptkey
22 ## - if signing is enabled, data is signed with the GnuPG private
23 ## key specified by the signkey variable
24 ## - the password variable is used to unlock the GnuPG key(s) used
25 ## for encryption and (optionnal) signing
27 ## If the encryptkey option is not set:
28 ## - data signing is not possible
29 ## - the password variable is used to encrypt the data with symmetric
30 ## encryption: no GnuPG key pair is needed
34 # when set to yes, encryptkey variable must be set below; if you want to use
35 # two different keys for encryption and signing, you must also set the signkey
37 # default is no, for backwards compatibility with backupninja <= 0.5.
40 # ID of the GnuPG public key used for data encryption.
41 # if not set, symmetric encryption is used, and data signing is not possible.
44 # ID of the GnuPG private key used for data signing.
45 # if not set, encryptkey will be used.
49 # NB: neither quote this, nor should it contain any quotes

54 ## (where the files to be backed up are coming from)
58 # A few notes about includes and excludes:
59 # 1. include, exclude and vsinclude statements support globbing with '*'
60 # 2. Symlinks are not dereferenced. Moreover, an include line whose path
61 # contains, at any level, a symlink to a directory, will only have the
62 # symlink backed-up, not the target directory's content. Yes, you have to
63 # dereference yourself the symlinks, or to use 'mount --bind' instead.
64 # Example: let's say /home is a symlink to /mnt/crypt/home ; the following
65 # line will only backup a "/home" symlink ; neither /home/user nor
66 # /home/user/Mail will be backed-up :
67 # include = /home/user/Mail
68 # A workaround is to 'mount --bind /mnt/crypt/home /home' ; another one is to
70 # include = /mnt/crypt/home/user/Mail
71 # 3. All the excludes come after all the includes. The order is not otherwise
74 # files to include in the backup
75 include = /var/spool/cron/crontabs
76 include = /var/backups
80 include = /usr/local/bin

85 # If vservers = yes in /etc/backupninja.conf then the following variables can
87 # vsnames = all | <vserver1> <vserver2> ... (default = all)
91 # Any path specified in vsinclude is added to the include list for each vserver
92 # listed in vsnames (or all if vsnames = all, which is the default).
94 # For example, vsinclude = /home will backup the /home directory in every
95 # vserver listed in vsnames. If you have 'vsnames = foo bar baz', this
96 # vsinclude will add to the include list /vservers/foo/home, /vservers/bar/home
97 # and /vservers/baz/home.
