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

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

89 # If vservers = yes in /etc/backupninja.conf then the following variables can
91 # vsnames = all | <vserver1> <vserver2> ... (default = all)
95 # Any path specified in vsinclude is added to the include list for each vserver
96 # listed in vsnames (or all if vsnames = all, which is the default).
98 # For example, vsinclude = /home will backup the /home directory in every
99 # vserver listed in vsnames. If you have 'vsnames = foo bar baz', this
100 # vsinclude will add to the include list /vservers/foo/home, /vservers/bar/home
101 # and /vservers/baz/home.
102 # Vservers paths are derived from $VROOTDIR.
