-version 0.9.4 -- unreleased
+version 0.9.5 -- unreleased
+ backupninja changes
+ . Fixed checks on configuration files permissions, since the patch
+ applied to fix #370396 broke this, especially for configuration files
+ created with permissions 000 by an older ninjahelper version.
+ . Enhanced portability for other platforms
+ . Added quoting because it was needed to prevent shell expansion, broking the
+ toint function sometimes (Closes: Trac#11)
+ . Fixed reportspace option (Closes: Trac#10)
+ . Fixed ldap handler not recognizing database suffix (Closes: Trac#28)
handler changes
+ dup:
+ . Support duplicity >= 0.4.3 invocation syntax (--ssh-command option
+ is not supported anymore) (Closes: #447425)
+ . New tmpdir configuration option, very useful in case duplicity tends
+ to fill up /tmp.
+ ldap:
+ . Fixed shell command quoting issues, missing 'then' clauses, cleaned up
+ compress=yes to be less redundant and not create empty uncompressed
+ file (Closes: #394935)
+ . Fixed ninjahelper to properly set compress option, standardized on yes/no
+ instead of on/off
+ . Fixed problem that caused combination of slapcat and compress to not work
+ together (Closes: Trac#29)
+ . Applied patch from romain.tartiere@healthgrid.org to fix the SSL/TLS options
+ to be correct, also set TLS to be the default over SSL (Closes: Trac#13)
+ maildir:
+ . Added an examples file (Closes: Trac#23)
+ . Applied patch from Anarcat that fixes the cp/mkdir calls to not use GNU
+ coreutils options, as well as some bashisms (Closes: Trac#24)
+ . Fix test mode (Closes: Trac#25)
+ mysql:
+ . Fixed case where odd combination of configuration options caused sqldump
+ backups to get overwritten with an empty file (Closes: #402679)
+ . Added 'nodata' option to enable you to specify tables that you want to omit
+ the data from a backup, but still backup the table structure. This is very
+ useful in cases where tables contain large amounts of cache data. See the
+ example.mysql for options, thanks Daniel Bonniot (Closes: #408829)
+ . Enhance code for selecting databases by asking MySQL not to give us the
+ header (-N), to not draw pretty boxes around the output (-B), send the query
+ via -e instead of a pipe and ensure MySQL listens to -B. Thanks to
+ Matthew Palmer (Closes: #452039).
+ pgsql:
+ . Support configuring PGSQLUSER for real, and document it a bit; this
+ broken support actually prevented pgsql handler to work for VServers
+ (Closes: #396578)
+ rdiff-backup:
+ . Added cstream support to allow for bandwidth limiting
+ . Handle "keep = yes" to disable old backups removal (Closes: #424633)
+ . Add configuration option to allow you to disable the version check
+ as in some instances this may be an ok scenario (Closes: #424632)
+ . Added local destination support to helper (Closes: Trac#4)
+ . Allow exclude-only configurations (Closes: Trac#21)
+ rub/rsync
+ . Fixed typo in rub handler that caused it to not work
+ . Changed to use lib/vserver code
+ . Fixed fsck error
+ . Fixed integer comparison (Closes: Trac#3)
+ . Renamed handler to 'rsync', replaces outdated rub handler
+ . updated examples/Makefile.am and handlers/Makefile.am to include
+ rsnap/rsync (Closes: #440554)
+ . Added example.rsync configuration file
+ sys:
+ . Fixed typo breaking things for VServers.
+ . Fix bug when vrootdir is on its own partition (Closes: #395928)
+ . Better sfdisk error and output handling: should now properly warn
+ when it does not manage to backup a partition table, and shut up when
+ it succeeds (Closes: #396632)
+ . Added option to not use sfdisk at all, useful for vserver/xen instances
+ that produce warnings about no harddisks found (Closes: #404071)
+ . Fixed example in example.sys to detail the __star__ in partitionsfile and
+ note why its necessary (Closes: #409192)
+ . Force C locale for sfdisk to ensure english words are found in grep
+ . Make directory where output is placed configurable, and create the parent dir
+ if it doesn't exist (Closes: Trac#1)
+ ninjareport
+ . Added first draft of method to aggregate reports from many servers into
+ one email. Requires logtail, rsync, configuration of reporthost,
+ reportdirectory and reportuser in backupninja.conf. Configure cron to
+ run once a day, and individual backupninjas not to report by email their
+ status, then enjoy one email report from all hosts, rather than multiple
+ fixed 'make install' bug that failed if /etc/backup.d already existed
+ changed spaces to tabs in Makefile.am
+ updated redhat spec file (thanks Adam Monsen)
+
+
+version 0.9.4 -- October 6th, 2006
+ backupninja changes
+ . Fixed bug in toint(), and thus isnow(), which caused it
+ to not work when run from cron.
+ . Recursively ignore subdirs in /etc/backup.d (Closes: #361102)
+ . Add admingroup option to configuration to allow a group that can
+ read/write configurations (instead of only allowing root). Checks
+ and complains about group-readable files only when the group differs
+ from the one in the configuration file (default is root as before).
+ Thanks to Martin Krafft for the patch (Closes: #370396).
+ . When determining which backup actions to make, find now follows
+ symlinks for $configdirectory
+ . Changed order of -s to mail for compatibility
+ . fixed permission stat call so it uses the --format supported by
+ coreutils (Closes: #382747)
+ . Added disk space report option (thanks Adam Kosmin)
+ handler changes
+ Added tar handler:
+ . create tarballs
+ Added rsnap handler:
+ . rotated rsync snapshops
+ . code from paulv@bikkel.org
+ Added rub handler:
+ . alternative to rsnap
+ . code from rhatto@riseup.net
mysql:
- . Fixed improper use of $vuserhome (Debian: #351083)
+ . Fixed improper use of $vuserhome (Closes: #351083)
. Fixed erroneous removal of tmpfile when it didn't exit
. Fixed inversed vsname emptiness check
. Fixed su quote usage to be more posixy
+ . Compress for sqldumps now happens in-line to save some disk space (Closes: #370778)
+ . Fixed --defaults-file now as --defaults-extra-file (thanks rhatto)
pgsql:
. Fixed inversed vsname emptiness check
. Fixed su quote usage to be more posixy
+ . Fixed shell expansion, thanks Thomas Kotzian (Closes: #363297)
+ . postgres user UID is now the one from inside the vserver if necessary
+ . Compress now happens in-line to save some disk space (Closes: #370778)
+ . $PGSQLUSER is used instead of hardcoding user 'postgres' (although this is the default)
svn:
. Fixed inversed vsname emptiness check
rdiff:
- . Fixed improper include/exclude symlink dereference
+ . Symlink and globbing support in include/exclude/vsinclude
+ clarification: globbing is fully supported again, whereas no attempt
+ is done to dereference symlinks anymore, due to incompatibilities
+ between various readlink versions in this field.
. Removed overzealous vsnames check
+ . Now works if testconnect=no and if $test is not defined.
+ . add $sshoptions config parameter in [dest] section of config so
+ connections to ports other than 22 can be made by adding the
+ following to the top of the handler config:
+ options = --remote-schema 'ssh -p REMOTE-PORT -C %s rdiff-backup
+ --server'
dup:
- . Fixed improper include/exclude symlink dereference
+ . Symlink and globbing support in include/exclude/vsinclude
+ clarification: globbing is fully supported again, whereas no attempt
+ is done to dereference symlinks anymore, due to incompatibilities
+ between various readlink versions in this field.
. Removed over zealous vsnames check
+ . Does not pretend anymore that duplicity can work without
+ any passphrase
+ . Support duplicity 0.4.2 (with Debian patches applied; upstream's
+ 0.4.3 will integrate them); documented how to write sftp-compatible
+ sshoptions (Closes: #388543)
+ . Now forbid to (try to) include /.
+ sys:
+ . Many more system checks were added, (thanks to Petr Klíma)
+ . Added warning if no devices were found (thanks Ranier Zocholl)
+ . Enhanced debian package selections to include purged packages (thanks
+ Tom Hoover)
+ . Removed warning about vserver not running (thanks anarcat)
+ ldap:
+ . Compress now happens in-line to save some disk space (Closes: #370778)
+ makecd:
+ . Added nicelevel option (thanks rhatto)
+ trac:
+ . fixed problem when src was set to the trac repo directly (Closes: #382737)
lib changes
vserver:
. init_vservers: fixed Debian bug #351083 (improper readlink syntax)
. found_vservers: escaped special grep repetition character +
+ . forced mktemp to use a template with a name to be more compatible with
+ different versions of mktemp, thanks anarcat
+ ninjahelper changes
+ . Recursively ignore subdirs in /etc/backup.d (Closes: #361102)
+ . Fix configdirectory error that forced you to use /etc/backup.d, thanks anarcat
+ . When determining which backup actions to list, find now follows
+ symlinks for $configdirectory
+ . Stop checking helpers perms: both "make install" and distros packages
+ install them with appropriate permissions, it's overzealous to check
+ this at runtime, and is more complicated to do with current
+ admingroup option.
+ dup.helper:
+ . Fix: signing was enabled with symmetric encryption.
+ changed cron permissions to 644
+ changed /etc/backup.d permissions to 0770 (for admingroup)
minor documentation fixes
+ improved RPM build process allowing 'make rpm-package' and 'make
+ srpm-package' targets, also fixes permissions on man directories,
+ cleans up RPM-related files during distclean, and adds default
+ EDITOR for "autogen.sh -f" if none is set. (thanks Robert Napier)
