This manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the original program does not have a manual page. .PP .\" TeX users may be more comfortable with the \fB\fP and .\" \fI\fP escape sequences to invode bold face and italics, .\" respectively. \fbbbackupd\fP is the client daemon of the Box Backup system. It runs in the background, periodically scanning the file system looking for modified files. It then uploads them to the remote store according to parameters defined in its config file. .SH OPTIONS .TP .B config_file Path to the configuration file for bbackupd. .TP .B SINGLEPROCESS For test purpose only. Prevent the daemon to fork in the background and to detach from the terminal. .SH FILES .TP .I /etc/boxbackup/bbackupd.conf Default configuration file for bbackupd. .TP .I /var/lib/bbackupd Location of management files of the daemon. .SH SEE ALSO .BR bbackupctl (8), .BR bbackupquery (8), .BR bbackupd-config (8). .br .SH AUTHOR This manual page was written by Jérôme Schell (with the help of the online documentation located at http://www.fluffy.co.uk/boxbackup/) for the Debian GNU/Linux system (but may be used by others).
