Import of boxbackup 0.10
This is actually a quite funny commit: I had started my packaging branch in a strange way: I did not start from a clean tarball, but used an existing packaging directory as starting place. This makes upgrading to a new upstream hard. So I branched revision 1, and 'bzr import'ed the Upstream tarball of version 0.10 over it. The upstream tarball version I used for this commit has the md5sum: 2dc02d87932fdb222ed019443ddcf444

-
-Template: boxbackup-client/generateCertificate
-Type: boolean
-Default: true
-Description: Do you want debconf to generate the client private key and x509 certificate request?
- The boxbackup client needs a RSA private key and the corresponding x509 certificate
- to authenticate itself to the server.
- .
- Debconf can generate for you the private key and a x509 certificate sign request.
- You will need to send the certificate request to the administrator of the Boxbackup server
- and this one will sign it and send it back to you along with the server Certification Authority
- certificate. You will need to put these files in your boxbackup configuration directory (see
- /etc/boxbackup/bbackupd.conf file for the exact name to give to these files).
- .
- If you prefer to manage this by yourself, say No here.
-
-Template: boxbackup-client/generalInfo
-Type: note
-Description: Read /usr/share/doc/boxbackup-client/README.Debian to finish the configuration
- You should read the /usr/share/doc/boxbackup-client/README.Debian file
- to learn how to finish the configuration of boxbackup client.
- You will have to send the certificate request to the boxbackup server
- administrator.
- You can also customize the directories to backup in the file /etc/boxbackup/bbackupd.conf.
- .
- Be sure to make a *secure* backup copy of the following files:
- - /etc/boxbackup/bbackupd/boxbackup-client-encrypt-key.raw : the key used to encrypt/decrypt
- your backup.
- - /etc/boxbackup/bbackupd/boxbackup-client-priv-key.pem : your private key.
- - /etc/boxbackup/bbackupd/boxbackup-client-cert.pem : your certificate signed by the
- server administrator.
- I advise you to backup the whole /etc/boxbackup directory.
- Without those files you won't be able to restore your data. You have been warned.
