> I'm wondering now how to exclude things like "/proc" globally and per-PC. > You cannot exclude something globally, then exclude more per-PC. The per-PC settings simply override whatever was set globally, since it's just setting a perl variable. I suppose you could actually write perl code that pushes more directories onto the array, but it would get cryptic very fast.
Look into setting something globally if you have several machines that share a similar set of excludes, and override where different configurations are needed. The documentation explains how to write per-PC configs. If you're using 3.0.0beta, you can actually edit the PC config straight from the CGI interface. > Also wondering how through the CGI interface I can have "normal" users who > can view/start/restore their backups while different from the "admin" users > (my terminology may be wrong here). > You have to create multiple 'users' in your auth file for the CGI to allow people to log in. Once you have that, you assign these users to their respective machines in the BackupPC hosts file. This way, when one of those users accesses the CGI pages, it requests them to log in... which they do, and are presented with only the machines they are associated with in hosts. > Can't seem to find a config variable other than CgiAdminUsers available. > This variable only tells what users should have access to everything. You set the per-PC owners in the hosts file. Hope this helps, JH ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
