Hi Guys

Some weeks ago I sent a message to the list, saying that I would like
to have a Windows Installer for backuppc clients. I never started
that, and started to think that maybe in some cases I could do almost
everything from the server.

So, considering I will do backups using smb transfer method, I only
need that the shares be configured on the clients, and that backuppc
have at least read access.

I made a simple prototype to search for shares on the local network
and to add the machines to the hosts configuration file, and to create
the host specific configuration file in backkuppc config directory.

It seems to be working.

It doesn't have any options by now, you can customize some thinks
directly in the begining of the source code. Please take a look at it
before testing.

I am sending you the file in case you want to give a try and send some
opinions. The script was made with Chicken, which is a scheme
implementation, so you will need it if you want to test the
script. You can download Chicken from here:

Best regards,
Rodrigo
