21 # Version __VERSION__, __RELEASEDATE__
22 #------------------------------------------------------------------------
24 * Added configuration and host CGI editor.
26 * Added rsync hardlink support. Requires latest version of
29 * Decoupled BackupPC_dump from BackupPC_nightly by making
30 asynchronous file linking/delete robust to race conditions.
31 Now only BackupPC_nightly and BackupPC_link are mutually
32 exclusive so only one runs at a time, and BackupPC_dump and
33 BackupPC_restore can run anytime.
35 * Added support for multi-level incrementals. In the style of dump(1),
36 the level of each incremental can be specified. Each incremental
37 backups up everything since the most recent backup of a lower level
38 (fulls are always level 0). Previous behavior was all incrementals
39 were level 1, meaning they backed up everything since the last full
40 (level 0). Default configuration is all incrementals are level 1.
42 * Server file names are now in utf8 and optional conversion
43 to/from client name charsets can be configured. All CGI pages
44 now use the utf8 charset.
46 * Backup metadata is now additionally saved to pc/HOST/nnn/backupInfo,
47 in addition to pc/HOST/backups. In case pc/HOST/backups gets trashed,
48 then a new script BackupPC_fixupBackupSummary can read the per-backup
49 metadata from pc/HOST/nnn/backupInfo and reconstruct the backups file.
50 Roberto Moreno also pointed out an early error in the CVS version.
52 * Added Storage module and Storage::Text which localizes all the
53 text data file reading/writing (eg: backups, restores, archives
54 and config.pl files). Added read verify after all write
55 operations for robustness. Additional backends (eg: SQL)
56 can be added in the future as new subclasses of the Storage
59 * Added Config module, and Config::Meta that contains meta data
60 about configuration parameters.
62 * Added RSS support from Rich Duzenbury.
64 * Translations of new 3.0 language strings from Guillaume Filion,
65 Reginaldo Ferreira, Ralph Passgang, Lieven Bridts, Guus Houtzager,
68 * Added optional checking of exit status of Dump/Restore/Archive Pre/Post
69 UserCmd, requested by Kiko Jover, Matthias Bertschy and others.
71 * Added Slackware init.d script from Tony Nelson.
73 * Fixed error reporting when restore/archive fail to write the
74 request file to the client directory.
76 * Applied patch from Marc Prewitt for DumpPreShareCmd and DumpPostShareCmd.
78 * Apply patch from Pete Wenzel to add smbClientPath => $Conf{SmbClientPath}
79 to DumpPreUserCmd etc.
81 * Added Portuguese Brazillian pt_br.pm from Reginaldo Ferreira.
83 * Jean-Michel Beuken reported several bugs in configure.pl in CVS 3.0.0.
85 * Old backup email warnings now ignore partials requested by Samuel Bancal
87 * Applied patch to bin/BackupPC_sendEmail from Marc Prewitt that
88 ignores any file starting with "." in the pc directory when
89 it is generating warnings about old/unused files/directories.
91 * Applied patch from Marc Prewitt to fix host queue order.
93 * Applied Lorenzo Cappelletti's it.pm patch.
95 * Applied Wander Winkelhorst's nl.pm patch.
97 * Applied Alberto Marconi's it.pm patch.
99 * Add NT_STATUS_FILE_LOCK_CONFLICT to pst read error check in
100 BackupPC_sendEmail to fix bug reported by Dale Renton.
102 * Added fixup of $ENV{REMOTE_USER} to lib/BackupPC/CGI/Lib.pm in the
103 case of using mod_authz_ldap; patch submitted by Alain Perrier.
105 * Added env LC_ALL=C to $Conf{TarClientCmd} and $Conf{TarClientRestoreCmd}
106 to avoid locale problems, suggested by Ludovic Drolez.
108 * Changed ping output parsing to pick out average rtt time, based
109 on patch from Ron Bickers.
111 * Removed leading "./" and top-level "./" directory from
112 zip archives generated by BackupPC_zipCreate. Reported
113 by Josh (hecktarzuli).
115 * BackupPC_tarCreate and BackupPC_zipCreate now allow "@"
116 in share names. Reported by Robert Waldner.
118 * NT_STATUS_INSUFF_SERVER_RESOURCES is now a fatal error for
119 smbclient transfers, suggested by Brian Shand.
121 * Changed bin/BackupPC_archiveHost to use /bin/csh instead of
122 /bin/sh. That way any errors in the pipeline are reported
123 via the exit status, instead of just the last.
125 * Added $Conf{EMailHeaders} for additional email headers, requested
126 by Ludovic Gasc. If the Content-Type charset is set to utf8 then
127 the body of the email is sent in utf8 coding.
129 * Made shareName argument regexp checking more general to allow parens.
131 * Added some debian init.d instructions to init.d/README from
134 * Documentation updates from Richard Ames, JP Vossen, Torsten Finke.
136 #------------------------------------------------------------------------
137 # Version 2.1.2pl2, 18 Jun 2006
138 #------------------------------------------------------------------------
140 * In conf/config.pl, changed --devices to -D in $Conf{RsyncArgs}
141 and $Conf{RsyncRestoreArgs} to fix "fileListReceive failed" and
142 "Can't open .../f%2f for empty output" errors with rsync 2.6.7+.
143 Fix proposed by Justin Pessa and Vincent Ho, and confirmed by
146 * Added patch from Michael (mna.news) to ignore "file is unchanged"
147 message from tar 1.15.x during incremental backups.
149 * Fixed creation of .rsrc directories in bin/BackupPC_tarExtract
150 when used with xtar on MacOS. Reported by Samuel Bancal and
151 Matthew Radey, who helped with debugging.
153 * Fixed bug in BackupPC_tarExtract for files >8GB in size whose
154 lengths are multiples of 256. Reported by Jamie Myers and
155 Marko Tukiainen, who both helped debugging the problem.
157 * Fixed bug in lib/BackupPC/Xfer/RsyncFileIO.pm that caused
158 incorrected deleted attributes to be set in directories
159 where one of the files had an rsync phase 1 retry during
160 an incremental. Reported by Tony Nelson.
162 #------------------------------------------------------------------------
163 # Version 2.1.2, 5 Sep 2005
164 #------------------------------------------------------------------------
166 * Fixed simple but serious bug in bin/BackupPC_tarCreate that prevented
167 hardlinks being saved correctly. Debugged by Michael (mna.news)
168 with several other people.
170 * Fixed serious bug in bin/BackupPC_dump reported/debugged by Dan Niles
171 that can happen when multiple full backups are deleted after
172 $Conf{FullKeepCnt} is changed.
174 * Changed lib/BackupPC/CGI/Lib.pm so that link to "$TopDir/conf/$host.pl"
175 is displayed if it exists. Patch from Andreas Vögele.
177 * Applied daemonize patch to bin/BackupPC from:
178 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=301057
180 * It's now a fatal error if $Conf{CompressLevel} is set, but
181 Compress::Zlib is not found. Before $Conf{CompressLevel} was
182 silently set to 0, which made all the backups uncompressed.
183 That meant the user never knew if they forget to install
184 Compress::Zlib but were expecting compression to be on.
186 * Finally increased $Conf{ClientTimeout} to 72000 (20 hours).
188 * Added sleep 1 in restart() function in init.d/src/gentoo-backuppc,
189 suggested by Jon Hood.
191 * Added $DestDir to the path of the CGI image directory in configure.pl.
192 Patch submitted by Andreas Vögele.
194 * Applied extensive patch to French translation from Frederic Lehobey.
196 * Minor change to Dutch language $Lang{Pool_Stat} from Wander Winkelhorst.
198 * Minor change to French language $Lang{EMailOutlookBackupMesg} and
199 $Lang{EMailOutlookBackupSubj} from Ludovic Gasc.
201 #------------------------------------------------------------------------
202 # Version 2.1.1, 13 Mar 2005
203 #------------------------------------------------------------------------
205 * Fixed bug in top-level restore using rsync XferMethod.
206 BackupPC::View was leaving an extra leading "/" at the start
207 of top-level directories, messing up the FileList sort order.
208 Reported and debugged by Gail Edwards.
210 * Added pathCreate() to BackupPC_tarExtract so that new directories
211 are created. Required for xtar on MacOSX since the virtual resource
212 fork directories (.rsrc) are not explicitly included in the tar
213 archive - just the files below .rsrc are.
215 * Changed $host.$bkupNum.tar$fileExt.* to $host.$bkupNum.tar$fileExt*
216 in $parCmd in bin/BackupPC_archiveHost.
218 * Fixed HostSortCompare() in BackupPC to correctly sort hosts so
219 those with the oldest backups get queued first.
221 * Changed test in BackupPC_sendEmail so that directories/files
222 starting with "." in $TopDir/pc are ignored, rather than
225 * Changed BackupPC_sendEmail to include NT_STATUS_FILE_LOCK_CONFLICT
226 in check for bad outlook files.
228 * Ensure that %Status and %StatusHost are empty if requesting
229 status on hosts in lib/BackupPC/CGI/Lib.pm GetStatusInfo().
230 Fixes problem with new hosts under mod_perl.
232 * Added images/icon-hardlink.gif so that hardlinks show file type icon.
234 #------------------------------------------------------------------------
235 # Version 2.1.0pl1, 15 Aug 2004
236 #------------------------------------------------------------------------
238 * Added fix to nl.pm from Lieven Bridts.
240 * Added patch from Tony Nelson to remove $Info{pid} before BackupPC
241 writes the status and shuts down.
243 * Changed BackupPC_nightly so that it doesn't call find() if the
244 directory doesn't exist. This avoids errors in certain versions
245 of perl. Reported by Bernd Rilling.
247 * Fixed BackupPC::CGI::Lib to correctly re-load config.pl for mod_perl.
248 Reported by Tony Nelson and Jimmy Liang.
250 * Explicitly untaint $In{host} in BackupPC::CGI::Lib to fix problem
251 reported by Thomas Tempé.
253 * Added newline to "...skipping because of user requested delay..."
254 log message in BackupPC_dump. Reported by Wayne Scott.
256 * Added read file size error checking to BackupPC_tarCreate.
257 Reported by Brandon Evans.
259 * Added check in BackupPC::Xfer::RsyncFileIO to ensure that when
260 compression is toggled on/off, a compressed backup doesn't link
261 to an uncompressed pool file (and an uncompressed backup doesn't
262 link to a compressed pool file). Reported by Brandon Evans.
264 * Updated documentation with new dirvish URL and a typo from
267 * Fix to BackupPC_sendEmail so that it correctly sends admin emails
268 for hosts that have failed backups. Reported by Simon Kuhn.
270 #------------------------------------------------------------------------
271 # Version 2.1.0, 20 Jun 2004
272 #------------------------------------------------------------------------
274 * Added Dutch translation from Lieven Bridts, with tweaks from
277 * Added PC-specific config file read in CGI/Archive.pm. Patch
280 * Added non-zero exit code to BackupPC_zcat when uncompress fails.
281 Patch from Pete Wenzel.
283 * Cosmetic changes to PC Summary and Log file language strings from
286 * BackupPC::Lib tries to be more careful when renaming the backups
287 file to backups.old. There have been reports of backups being
288 empty, perhaps when the BackupPC data file system fills up.
289 Now backups is not renamed to backups.old if backups is empty.
291 * BackupPC now closes stderr and stdout before renaming and
292 re-opening the log file.
294 * Pre/post backup/restore/archive commands now correctly set
295 "type" to either incr/full/restore/archive, and now cmdType
296 is the type of Pre/post backup/restore/archive command.
298 * BackupPC_archive correctly terminates archive processes on
301 * Updates to BackupPC_stnd.css with absolute font sizes instead
304 * BackupPC_dump now makes sure that the $Conf{FullAgeMax} check
305 also ensures the full backup is older than the maximum age
306 expected from $Conf{FullPeriod}.
308 #------------------------------------------------------------------------
309 # Version 2.1.0beta2pl1, 30 May 2004
310 #------------------------------------------------------------------------
312 * Fixed bug in rsync checksum caching code in BackupPC::Xfer::RsyncDigest.
314 * BackupPC_zipCreate now ensures the earliest mtime is 1/1/1980,
315 since zip file formats don't support earlier dates. Reported
318 * CGI restore via zip and tar now makes sure stderr is ignored
319 when BackupPC_tarCreate and BackupPC_zipCreate are run.
320 Previously any stderr output would get mixed in the archive,
321 corrupting it. Reported by Dan Niles.
323 #------------------------------------------------------------------------
324 # Version 2.1.0beta2, 23 May 2004
325 #------------------------------------------------------------------------
327 * $Conf{BackupFilesOnly} and $Conf{BackupFilesExclude} now apply
328 to every share, rather than just the first, in the case where
329 they are arrays and there are multiple shares. Suggested
332 * On the phase 2 retry pass with rsync, verify the cached checksums
333 if checksum caching is turned on. This will catch the case of
334 cached checksums being incorrectly appended to the compressed
335 pool file. Added new config parameter $Conf{RsyncCsumCacheVerifyProb}
336 so that cached checksums are verified with a selectable probability.
337 Also, increased File::RsyncP version number to 0.51.
339 * configure.pl now supports an optional batch mode. Command-line
340 options are used to specify all the information that configure.pl
341 needs. This is useful for building auto-install packages.
342 Also, configure.pl now includes pod documentation, so you can do
343 "perldoc configure.pl" to see all the command-line options.
344 Suggested, tested and tweaked by Stuart Herbert for possible
347 * At each wakeup, clients are now queued based on how old the most
348 recent backup is. Clients with errors are queued first, with
349 the oldest error times going first. The rest of the clients are
350 queued next, with the clients with the oldest backup going first.
351 Previously the clients were simply queued in alphabetic order.
352 Suggested by Mike Trisko and Tony Nelson.
354 * Added config parameter $Conf{PartialAgeMax} that controls whether
355 partials are saved at all, and if so, whether the partial will be
356 ignored at the next full backup if it is too old.
358 * BackupPC_tarExtract now allows empty archives without reporting
359 an error. Reported by Don Silvia.
361 * Removed Browse Backups link from Nav Bar in Archive Info display.
362 Reported by Ralph Paßgang.
364 * Fixed documentation display for regular users. Reported by Ralph Paßgang.
366 * Status and PC Summary now work for regular users and only show
367 that user's hosts. Server general status information only appears
368 for admins. Suggested by Ralph Paßgang.
370 * Moved the last three navigation-bar links (docs, FAQ and SF) to
371 a new config parameter $Conf{CgiNavBarLinks}. This allows
372 these links to be locally configured. Based on a patch
373 submitted by Ralph Paßgang.
375 * Allow the navigation bar search box to be disabled by
376 setting $Conf{CgiSearchBoxEnable} to 0. Based on a patch
377 submitted by Ralph Paßgang.
379 * Updates to de.pm from Ralph Paßgang.
381 * Made the BackupPC icon a link to the SF BackupPC project page.
383 #------------------------------------------------------------------------
384 # Version 2.1.0beta1, 4 Apr 2004
385 #------------------------------------------------------------------------
387 * The CSS definition has been removed from the config.pl file and
388 is now a separate file, BackupPC_stnd.css. A new config variable,
389 $Conf{CgiCSSFile}, gives the name of the CSS file to use.
390 Suggested by Ender Mathias.
392 * Fixed the filling of the host name select box for admins.
393 The default $Conf{CgiNavBarAdminAllHosts} is now 1.
394 Reported by Doug Lytle.
396 * Cleaned up warning message for restore using rsync when checksum
397 caching is on, but when file didn't have cached checksums.
399 * Fixed BackupPC_archiveHost to support par2 (par2cmdline).
400 Patch submitted by Jaco Bongers and adapted by Josh Marshall.
402 * Improved stat() usage in BackupPC_nightly, plus some other cleanup,
403 giving a significant performance improvement. Patch submitted by
406 * Allow several BackupPC_nightly processes to run in parallel based
407 on new $Conf{BackupPCNightlyJobs} setting. This speeds up the
408 traversal of the pool, reducing the overall run time for
411 * Allow BackupPC_nightly to split the pool traversal across several
412 nightly runs. This improves the running time per night, at the expense
413 of a slight increase in disk storage as unused pool files might not
414 be deleted for a couple of days. Controller by new config setting
415 $Conf{BackupPCNightlyPeriod}.
417 #------------------------------------------------------------------------
418 # Version 2.1.0beta0, 20 Mar 2004
419 #------------------------------------------------------------------------
421 * A failed full dump is now saved as a partial (incomplete) dump,
422 provided it includes some files. This can be used for browsing,
423 restoring etc, and will also form the basis of resuming full
424 dumps. Only one partial is kept, and it is removed as soon
425 as a successful full (or a new partial) is done.
427 * Added support for resuming a full dump for rsync. The partial
428 full is kept, and to resume an incremental is done against the
429 partial, and a full is done for the rest.
431 * Added support for Rsync checksum caching. Rsync checksum are
432 appended to the compressed pool files. This means that block
433 and file checksums do not need to be recomputed on the server
434 when using rsync. Requires a patch to rsync to support fixed
435 checksum seeds. This patch is included in the cygwin-rsyncd
436 release on http://backuppc.sourceforge.net.
438 * Major addition of Archive feature from Josh Marshall. Special
439 clients can be configured to be archive targets (eg: tape drives,
440 CD-R). Any subset of the backup clients can be selected and tar
441 archives are created, optionally compressed and split and written
442 to the output device. Logs are maintained and are browsable.
444 * Major changes from Ryan Kucera to add style sheets to the CGI
445 interface, allowing easy customization. Added new icons and
446 BackupPC logo. Numerous navigation improvements.
448 * Added directory history display to BackupPC_Admin, allowing the
449 user to quickly see which files changed between backups on a
452 * Added exponential expiry option for full dumps. This allows you
455 - how many fulls to keep at intervals of $Conf{FullPeriod}, followed by
456 - how many fulls to keep at intervals of 2 * $Conf{FullPeriod},
457 - how many fulls to keep at intervals of 4 * $Conf{FullPeriod},
458 - how many fulls to keep at intervals of 8 * $Conf{FullPeriod},
459 - how many fulls to keep at intervals of 16 * $Conf{FullPeriod},
461 and so on. This allows you, for example, to keep 4 weekly fulls,
462 followed by 6 fulls every 4 weeks (approx 1 month) and 2 fulls at
463 16 weeks, for roughly 1 year of history. This works by deleting
464 every other full as each expiry boundary is crossed. Suggested
467 * Added Italian language translation it.pm from Lorenzo Cappelletti.
469 * Major updates to language files for new features and tags changes.
470 Updated makeDist to do pedantic consistency checking of language
473 * Addition of administration options from Paul Lukins. Initial
474 page allows server to be started/stopped/reloaded. This still
475 needs some i18n work. Currently the server start/stop is
478 * Split BackupPC_Admin into a set of modules, one for each major action.
479 Each action is now a seperate module in lib/BackupPC/CGI.
481 * Allow the blackout period begin/end to span midnight. Adapted
482 from patch submitted by David Smith.
484 * Allow multiple blackout periods, with new config variable
485 $Conf{BlackoutPeriods} that replaces the old variables
486 $Conf{BlackoutHourBegin}, $Conf{BlackoutHourEnd}, and
487 $Conf{BlackoutWeekDays}. Based on patch submitted by
490 * Disabled alarms after forks to avoid timeouts in children that
491 do not reset their alarm. Prompted by ideas from James Leu.
493 * Added options for block size, buffer size and share wild-card to
494 BackupPC_tarCreate. Also added negative backup number options
495 that are relative to the last (so -1 is the last), suggested by
496 William McKee and Carl Soderstrom.
498 * The "Wrong user" message in BackupPC::Lib now goes to stderr, so that
499 the user is more likely to see the error with BackupPC_tarCreate.
500 Reported by Paul Fox.
502 * Add creation of per-PC directory in BackupPC/CGI/Restore.pm in
503 case it doesn't already exist.
505 * Added -q -x to all ssh commands in conf/config.pl. Suggested by
506 SI Reasoning and Niranjan Ghate.
508 * Changed restore code so that option #1 (direct restore) can be
509 disabled if the restore command is undefined. Disabling direct
510 restore is necessary if the share is read-only. Suggested by
513 * Changed regexp in lib/BackupPC/Smb.pm to allow numbers with both
514 a decimal point or comma for international versions of Samba.
515 Patch submitted by Frank Gard.
517 * Browsing and directory history now sort the files in a
518 case-insensitive manner.
520 * Changed exec() syntax to allow executing commands whose path
523 * BackupPC_dump no longer removes backups if $Conf{FullKeepCnt}
524 is zero or undefined. The protects the existing backups in the
525 case of a bad config.pl file. Suggested by Christian Warden.
527 * Swapped the Server and Hosts sections on the Nav bar. Moved the
528 host search text box to the top of the hosts section. This was
529 done to move the variable-length part of the Nav bar (when all
530 hosts are displayed) to the bottom.
532 * Fixed a bug in tar restore related to how the common prefix path is
533 removed. Now ensure that the common path is at a directory boundary.
534 Reported by Patrick Neuner.
536 * Added --chuid ${USER} to init.d/src/gentoo-backuppc. Suggested by
537 SI Reasoning, Pascal Pochol, Michael Evanoff and others.
539 * Added Suse notes to init.d/README from Bruno Vernay.
541 * Added Apache 2 documentation fix from Michael Tuzi.
543 #------------------------------------------------------------------------
544 # Version 2.0.2, 6 Oct 2003
545 #------------------------------------------------------------------------
547 * Fixed stupid last-minute change in octal size conversion in
550 #-----------------------------------------------------------------------
551 # Version 2.0.1, 5 Oct 2003
552 #------------------------------------------------------------------------
554 * Fixed handling of >= 8GB files in BackupPC_tarExtract and >= 4GB
555 files in BackupPC_tarCreate.
557 * Removed smbclient size repair in BackupPC_tarExtract for files
558 between 2GB and 4GB. This means that BackupPC_tarExtract 2.0.1
559 doesn't behave the same as 2.0.0 for file sizes between 2GB and 4GB
560 extacted using smbclient 2.2.x. If you have problems backing up
561 files whose size is between 2GB and 4GB using smbclient 2.2.x
562 you should upgrade smbclient to 3.0, since it now generates
565 * Replace PingClientPath with PingPath in configure.pl.
567 * Removed -T (taint mode) on binaries installed in configure.pl.
569 * Added support for smbclient from samba version 3.0.0.
571 * Fixed $Conf{HardLinkMax} limit check in BackupPC::Lib; reported
574 * In BackupPC_Admin, default REMOTE_USER to $Conf{BackupPCUser}
575 if it is not defined. This allows the CGI interface to work
576 when AdminUsers = '*'. Reported by Quentin Arce.
578 * For SMB, code that detected files with a read-locked region (eg:
579 outlook .pst files), removed them and then tried to link with an
580 earlier version was broken. This code missed a step of mangling
581 the file names. This is now fixed. Reported by Pierre Bourgin.
583 * A backup of a share that has zero files is now considered
584 fatal. This is used to catch miscellaneous Xfer errors that
585 result in no files being backed up. A new config parameter
586 $Conf{BackupZeroFilesIsFatal} (defaults to 1) and can be set to
587 zero to turn off this check. Suggested by Guillaume Filion.
588 Additional change: this check only applies to a full dump.
590 * SMB: now detect NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED on entire share or BackupFilesOnly
591 (also ERRDOS - ERRnoaccess (Access denied.) for older versions of
592 smbclient.) Suggested by Guillaume Filion.
594 * SMB: now detects "tree connect failed: NT_STATUS_BAD_NETWORK_NAME" and
595 the dump is considered failed.
597 * Rsync: Previously BackupFilesOnly = '/' did --include '/' --exclude '/*',
598 which just included the '/' directory and nothing below. Now it
599 does just --include '/', which should include everything.
602 * Add hostError to DumpPostUserCmd variable substitutions for both dump
605 * Verbose output in Lib.pm goes to STDERR, not STDOUT. This now
606 makes BackupPC_dump -v work better.
608 * Don't allow browsing with ".." in directory in case a user tries
609 to trick BackupPC_Admin into displaying directories outside where
612 * Required File::RsyncP version is now 0.44, since File::RsyncP 0.44
613 fixes large file (>2GB) bugs. Large file bugs reported by Steve
616 #------------------------------------------------------------------------
617 # Version 2.0.0, 14 Jun 2003
618 #------------------------------------------------------------------------
620 * Minor tweaks to disable utf8 on utf8-capable machines (eg: RH8+).
621 Added "no utf8" to all programs, and added binmode() to relevant
624 #------------------------------------------------------------------------
625 # Version 2.0.0beta3, 1 Jun 2003
626 #------------------------------------------------------------------------
628 * Several improvements to restore: cancel now reports the correct
629 message and cleans up correctly.
631 * Rsync with whitespace and wildcard excludes fixed by replacing
632 argList with argList+ in config.pl plus a fix to Lib.pm for
633 shell escaping array arguments.
635 * Fixed rsync restore for character and block special devices
636 (major and minor device numbers weren't correctly restored).
638 * Fixed typo in bin/BackupPC_restore (XferLOG -> RestoreLOG).
640 * (Re)-fixed "Bad command" in log file when restore via tar or zip
641 file download is done.
643 * Added untaint to exec in Lib.pm to avoid tainted errors.
645 * Applied additional tweak to hilight patch from Tim Demarest.
647 * $Conf{CgiAdminUsers} = '*' now allows privileged even with REMOTE_USER
650 * Don't display RsyncdPasswd when displaying config.pl files.
652 * Replace pipe with socketpair in bin/BackupPC_dump and bin/BackupPC_restore,
653 which increases typical buffering from 4K to 16K-64K. This improves the
656 * Add check on $ENV{LANG} setting do configure.pl: if LANG includes utf
657 then a warning is printed.
659 #------------------------------------------------------------------------
660 # Version 2.0.0beta2, 11 May 2003
661 #------------------------------------------------------------------------
663 * Added German translation, provided by Manfred Herrmann.
665 * Fixed large-file problem with rsync, reported by Manfred Herrmann.
667 * Fixed zip and tar file download from CGI under mod_perl. Reported
668 by Pierre Bourgin and Paul Lukins.
670 * Fixed directory browsing and top-level directory browsing in 2.0.0beta0.
671 Reported by several users.
673 * Added -v option to BackupPC_dump for verbose output (useful when
674 you run the command manually). Added messages for all exits.
676 * If nmblookup returns multiple IP addresses, NetBiosHostIPFind()
677 now returns the first IP address that matches the subnet mask.
678 Suggested by Tim Demarest.
680 * Fixed BackupPC::View so the top-level directory is handled correctly.
681 This allows the top-level share/directory to be restored via the
682 CGI interface. Reported by several users.
684 * Fixed RsyncFileIO failures on certain large files by replacing seek()
685 with sysseek(). Reported by Manfred Herrmann.
687 * Added configurable highlighting of PC status in the CGI summary
688 screen; submitted by Tim Demarest.
690 * Fixed command queue CGI display; submitted by Tim Demarest.
692 * BackupPC_trashClean now logs an error if it can't remove all the
693 trash and then goes back to sleep, rather than continually trying.
695 * Moved correct user (uid) check into BackupPC::Lib so that all
696 applications do a user check if $Cong{BackupPCUserVerify} is
697 set. The avoids the risk of manually running BackupPC_dump as
700 * Loss of blackout now applies to "host not found" as well as no ping.
701 Reported by Dale Renton.
703 * "Host not found" is now treated in a similar manner to "no ping".
705 * Added suse-linux init.d script from Leon Letto.
707 * Added Gentoo linux init.d script from Tim Demarest.
709 * Applied additional i18n strings from GFK and the translation team.
711 * Fixed option parsing so that getopts errors are reported and we exit.
713 * Changed reporting of Xfer PIDs so that rsync cancel works correctly.
715 #------------------------------------------------------------------------
716 # Version 2.0.0beta1, 30 Mar 2003
717 #------------------------------------------------------------------------
719 * Added Spanish translation es.pm from Javier Gonzalez.
721 * Fixed CGI browse navigation bug that causes BackupPC_Admin to wedge
722 when directories were selected in a certain order.
724 * Fixed BackupPC::PoolWrite so that it can recover when the initial
725 file size is wrong. This is needed since rsync could write a file
726 whose size is different from the initial size returned in the
727 file list when that file is updated while rsync is running.
729 * Added binmode(STDIN) to BackupPC_tarExtract, suggested by Pat LoPresti
730 to fix a problem a RedHat8 with perl 5.8.0. It's unclear why this
731 helps, but it should be benign. See:
732 http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?thread_id=1853018&forum_id=503
734 #------------------------------------------------------------------------
735 # Version 2.0.0beta0, 23 Feb 2003
736 #------------------------------------------------------------------------
738 * Support for rsync and rsyncd backup and restore. Changes to
739 BackupPC_dump, BackupPC_restore, and new modules BackupPC::Xfer::Rsync
740 and BackupPC::Xfer::RsyncFileIO.
742 * Added internationalization (i18n) code from Xavier Nicollet,
743 with additions from Guillaume Filion. Voila! BackupPC_Admin
744 now supports English and French, and adding more languages is
745 now easy. New config paramater $Conf{Language} sets the language.
747 * Added optional user-defined pre/post dump/restore commands, allowing
748 things like database shutdown/startup for dumps.
750 * Changed the way hosts are found.
752 * Added $Conf{ClientNameAlias}, which allows the name of the physical
753 client machine to be set. This allows several different backup
754 "hosts" to all refer to the same physical machine, which is
755 convenient if several different types of data need to be backed
756 up, or if different parameters are needed for different parts of
759 * Replaced $Conf{PingArgs} with $Conf{PingCmd}, added $Conf{DfCmd},
760 $Conf{NmbLookupCmd} allowing all these commands to be fully
761 configured. Also, all commands can also now be fragments of
764 * Moved all smbclient commands into the config.pl file so the specific
765 arguments can be customized. New config parameters are
766 $Conf{SmbClientFullCmd}, $Conf{SmbClientIncrCmd} and
767 $Conf{SmbClientRestoreCmd}.
769 * Added new BackupPC::View module that creates views of backups
770 (handling merging etc). Updated BackupPC_Admin, BackupPC_zipCreate
771 and BackupPC_tarCreate to use BackupPC::View. This removes lots
772 of merging and mangling code from the higher-level code.
774 * Added code from Toby Johnson that allows additional users to be
775 specified in the hosts file; these users can also view/start/stop
776 and restore backups for that host. Also added a new config
777 setting $Conf{CgiNavBarAdminAllHosts} that allows all hosts to
778 be listed in the left nav bar for admins.
780 * Added $Conf{HardLinkMax} (default 31999) which sets the limit on
781 the maximum number of hardlinks per file in the pool. If a file
782 ever gets to this number of links a new pool file is created to
783 handle additional links.
785 * Added $Conf{PerlModuleLoad}, which allows optional additional perl
786 modules to be loaded.
788 * Added $Conf{EMailUserDestDomain} and other EMail config settings to
789 allow language-specific default messages to be overridden.
791 * Added BPC_FTYPE_DELETED to lib/BackupPC/Attrib.pm, allowing deleted
792 files to be represented in the attrib file correctly.
794 * Added support for environment variable BPC_SMB_PASSWD, which is the
795 client's smb password. This overrides the old environment variable
798 * Added taint cleanup for perl5.8 to lib/BackupPC/Lib.pm.
800 * Changed $tar_unpack_header format in BackupPC_tarExtract to correctly
801 handle files with trailing spaces.
803 * Added catching of SIG_PIPE to BackupPC_dump, and changed catch_signal
804 to ignore multiple signals of the same type.
806 * Added reporting of the largest number of hardlinks in the pool to the
809 * Adding reporting of syntax errors in the per-PC config.pl file.
811 * Updated BackupPC_sendEmail to handle language-specific email messages.
813 * Allow client (host) names to contain spaces. Spaces in host names
814 need to be escaped via "\" in the hosts file. The user of spaces in
815 host names is discouraged, but they should work. One feature that
816 doesn't work with host names that contain spaces is the highlighting
817 of that name in the log file display in the CGI interface. There are
818 no plans to fix this.
820 * Renamed $Conf{SmbClientTimeout} to $Conf{ClientTimeout}.
822 * Fixed all open() calls to use 3 argument form to fix handling of file
823 names with trailing whitespace. Also fixed CGI interface so these
824 file names are displayed correctly.
826 * Fixed new 2.0.0 CGI navigation bug that causes the top-level directory
827 to have a URL "&share=//boot&dir=" instead of "&share=/boot&dir=/".
828 Reported by Pascal Schelcher. Fixed similar problem reported by
831 * Added "PerlTaintCheck On" to the mod_perl section in the docs,
832 suggested by Tim Demarest.
834 #------------------------------------------------------------------------
835 # Version 1.5.0, 2 Aug 2002
836 #------------------------------------------------------------------------
838 * Changed conf/config.pl so that $Conf{TarIncrArgs} uses the --newer
839 option instead of --newer-mtime. Also removed --atime-preserve from
840 $Conf{TarClientCmd}. This makes the default settings work better
843 * Fixed configure.pl so it correctly detects a running BackupPC <= v1.4.0
844 so it can correctly warn the user to stop it before upgrading. Reported
847 * Added missing ";" to entity escape in EscapeHTML in BackupPC_Admin.
848 Reported by Guillaume Filion.
850 * Added LDAP setup to documentation from David Holland.
852 * Tar.pm now adds a "." to file paths that start with "/", so that all
853 tar paths are relative. From Ludovic Drolez.
855 #------------------------------------------------------------------------
856 # Version 1.5.0beta0, 30 Jun 2002
857 #------------------------------------------------------------------------
859 * A full set of restore options is now supported, including direct
860 restore via smbclient or tar or downloading a zip or tar file.
862 * Major additions to CGI script to support better directory navigation,
863 restore features and mod_perl. Also, file downloads from the CGI
864 interface now correctly preserve the file name and provide the
865 correct Content-Type for the most common types of files. Improved
866 directory navigation was contributed by Ryan Kucera.
868 * New script BackupPC_zipCreate (contributed by Guillaume Filion) is the
869 zip analog of BackupPC_tarCreate. BackupPC_zipCreate can be used to
870 create a zip archive of any portion of a backup.
872 * Substantial additions to BackupPC_tarCreate to support restore,
873 including modifying path names, handling hardlinks, fixing
874 support of old backups without attributes (pre-v1.4.0). Plus
875 BackupPC_tarCreate is now an offical part of the release.
876 (Lack of support for hardlinks was reported by John Stanley.)
878 * BackupPC_tarExtract now supports hardlinks and fixed pooling of
881 * A unix domain socket is now used for communication between the CGI
882 interface and BackupPC. The original TCP socket is optional. Sockets
883 are correctly re-initialized if config.pl is updated with new socket
886 * For improved security messages over the unix or TCP socket are protected
887 via an MD5 digest based on a shared secret, a sequence number, a time
888 stamp and a unique per-connection number.
890 * Additions to configure.pl to support install of directory navigation
893 * Fixed case where $Conf{BackupFilesOnly} or $Conf{BackupFilesExclude}
894 were set to a single string or list (in v1.4.0 only the case of
895 hash worked correctly). Reported by Phillip Bertolus.
897 * Fixed case of $Conf{BackoutGoodCnt} == 0. This setting now makes the
898 client always subject to blackout, matching the comments in config.pl.
899 Also fixed handling of $Conf{BackoutGoodCnt} < 0 in the CGI script
900 reported by Pascal Schelcher.
902 * Fixed byte and file totals for tar backups, reported by several users.
904 * Fixed --newer-mtime date/timestamp format to make it ISO 8601 compliant,
905 suggested by Erminio Baranzini.
907 * Fixed handling of $Conf{BackupFilesOnly} in BackupPC::Xfer::Tar.pm, as
908 well as shell escaping of tar arguments.
910 * Fixed entity encoding of 8-bit characters in the CGI interface.
912 * Added optional CGI headers in $Conf{CgiHeaders} that by default
913 is set to a no-cache pragma. Suggested by Benno Zuure.
915 #------------------------------------------------------------------------
916 # Version 1.4.0, 16 Mar 2002
917 #------------------------------------------------------------------------
919 * BackupPC now supports tar (in addition to smb) for extracting host
920 data. This is the most convenient option for linux/unix hosts.
921 Tar can be configured to run over ssh, rsh or to backup a local
922 nfs mount from the host.
924 * Support for special files, including symbolic links, fifo, character
925 and block device files has been added, so that all native linux/unix
926 file types can be correctly backed up when using tar transport.
927 Special files are all stored as regular files and the type attributes
928 are used to remember the original file type.
930 * All unix file attributes are now saved (and pooled when possible).
931 This includes user and group ownership, permissions, and modification
932 time. Smbclient also does a reasonable job of emulating unix
933 permissions (such as mtime), and these attributes get saved too.
935 * The new default is to not fill incremental dumps. configure.pl
936 automatically sets $Conf{IncrFill} to 0. The default was 1
937 (incrementals were filled with hardlinks). Since the CGI
938 script does filling at browsing time, there is no need to
939 fill incremental dumps.
941 * Backup file names are now stored in "mangled" form. Each node of a
942 path is preceded by "f", and special characters (\n, \r, % and /) are
943 URI-encoded as "%xx", where xx is the ascii character's hex value. So
944 c:/craig/example.txt is now stored as fc/fcraig/fexample.txt. This
945 was done mainly so meta-data could be stored alongside the backup
946 files without name collisions. In particular, the attributes for the
947 files in a directory are stored in a file called "attrib", and
948 mangling avoids file name collisions (I discarded the idea of having
949 a duplicate directory tree for every backup just to store the
950 attributes). Other meta-data (eg: rsync checksums) could be stored in
951 file names preceded by, eg, "c". There are two other benefits to
952 mangling: the share name might contain "/" (eg: "/home/craig" for tar
953 transport), and I wanted that represented as a single level in the
954 storage tree. Secondly, as files are written to NewFileList for later
955 processing by BackupPC_link, embedded newlines in the file's path
956 will cause problems which are avoided by mangling.
958 The CGI script undoes the mangling, so it is invisibe to the user.
959 Of course, old (unmangled) backups are still supported by the CGI
962 * Various changes to the CGI interface, BackupPC_Admin:
964 + Added button that allows users to manually start a full dump in
965 addition to the existing incremental dump.
967 + Added display of file attributes when browsing backups.
969 + Added an optional holdoff time specified by the user when canceling
970 a backup. BackupPC will not attempt any new backups for at least the
971 specified time. This holdoff time can be changed whether or not a
974 + Added supports for file mangling, and correct merging of unfilled
975 backups from mangled or unmangled (and compressed or uncompressed)
976 fulls when browsing or restoring.
978 + Only displays a "Start Incr Backup" button if there are already some
981 + For DHCP hosts, when a user tries to manually start a backup, add
982 a check for the netbios name of both the host the request came
983 from (REMOTE_ADDR) and the last known DHCP address for that host
984 to see if either address matches the host. If not, an error
985 message is display. The previous behavior was that only requests
986 from the client itself succeeded, and requests from other machines
989 * Changed the version numbering to X.Y.Z, instead of X.0Y. This release
990 is 1.4.0. The first digit is for major new releases, the middle digit
991 is for significant feature releases and improvements, and the last
992 digit is for bug fixes. You should think of the old 1.00, 1.01, 1.02
993 and 1.03 as 1.0.0, ..., 1.3.0.
995 * BackupPC and the CGI script BackupPC_Admin now check that the effective
996 user id is correct to avoid accidentally launching BackupPC as the
997 wrong user or detecting CGI configuration problems. This behavior
998 can be turned off using the $Conf{BackupPCUserVerify} option.
1000 * In numerous places changed "Smb" to "Xfer" (eg: log file names) to
1001 support generic names for both smb and tar transport methods. The
1002 CGI script checks for old names for backward compatibility.
1004 * Major changed to Backup_dump to support new tar transport. All transport
1005 specific code moved into BackupPC::Xfer::Smb and BackupPC::Xfer::Tar
1008 * Added workaround for a bug in Samba's smbclient for files between 2GB
1009 and 4GB. The file size in the tar header is incorrect. This allows
1010 files up to 4GB to work with smbclient, rather than 2GB. To support
1011 files larger than 2GB you must make sure perl is compiled with the
1012 uselargefiles option (use "perl -V | egrep largefiles" to check) and
1013 the pool directory must be on a file system that supports large files.
1015 * Moved the pool writing code into a module BackupPC::PoolWrite. This
1016 allows the clever file pool checking (digest, uncompressing, comparing
1017 etc with minimum disk IO) to be used easily in multiple places (eg: it
1018 is now used for writing attribute files so they can be pooled).
1020 * Changed MD5 to Digest::MD5 to avoid use of the depreceated MD5 module.
1022 * Shortened default $Conf{MyPath} so that perl's taint mode is more likely
1023 to be happy. The old $Conf{MyPath} contained /usr/local/bin, which
1024 on one user's machine was world writable and perl -T correctly
1025 complained about it.
1027 * Fixed ping command options in Lib.pm so that it works on OpenBSD.
1028 Thanks to Kyle Amon for sending the fix. Decided to move the
1029 ping options from Lib.pm into config.pl (as $Conf{PingArgs}) and
1030 now configure.pl tries to come up with a sensible default based on
1033 * Fixed argument checking in BackupPC_tarExtract to allow '$' in the
1034 share name (eg: C$). Thanks to Jules Agee for this fix. Also
1035 changed the default config.pl so that single quotes are used
1036 everywhere so that people don't get tripped up putting '$' inside
1037 double-quoted strings.
1039 #------------------------------------------------------------------------
1040 # Version 1.03, 9 Dec 2001
1041 #------------------------------------------------------------------------
1043 * BackupPC now has full support for compression. There are now two
1044 pool areas, the original pool for uncompressed files, and cpool for
1045 compressed files. The compression is done by Compress::Zlib.
1046 Compression reduces the pool disk usage by around 40%, although your
1047 mileage may vary. Compression is optional and can also be specified on
1048 a per-PC basis (although this will cost more pool storage since many
1049 backup files will have to be stored in both compressed and
1052 * A new script, BackupPC_compressPool, can be run to compress the entire
1053 pool. This is used once to migrate all the pool data from uncompressed
1054 to compressed on existing installations. Read the documentation
1055 (Installing BackupPC/Compressing an existing pool) before running
1056 BackupPC_compressPool!
1058 Alternatively, compression can simply be turned on and all new backups
1059 will be compressed. Both old (uncompressed) and new (compressed)
1060 backups can be browsed and viewed. Eventually, the old backups will
1061 expire and all the pool data will be compressed. However, until the
1062 old backups expire, this approach could require 60% or more additional
1063 pool storage space to store both uncompressed and compressed versions
1064 of the backup files.
1066 * Significant improvements to the cgi interface, BackupPC_Admin:
1068 - much better layout navigation
1069 - handles compressed backup files and compressed log files
1070 - handles unfilled incremental dumps
1071 - better backup directory browsing navigation
1072 - reports compression statistics
1073 - $Conf{CgiDateFormatMMDD} allows you to set date format (MM/DD or DD/MM)
1074 - Additional customization with $Conf{CgiHeaderFontType},
1075 $Conf{CgiHeaderFontSize}, $Conf{CgiNavBarBgColor}, and
1076 $Conf{CgiHeaderBgColor}.
1078 * Eliminated BackupPC_queueAll. BackupPC directly reads the hosts
1079 file and queues the PCs itself. Like config.pl, BackupPC will
1080 re-read the hosts file on each wakeup if its modification time
1081 changes, or upon a SIGHUP. This also makes for better behavior
1082 when adding a host: if you add hosts, simply send a SIGHUP to
1083 BackupPC or wait for the next wakeup.
1085 * BackupPC_dump now compresses the SmbLOG file if compression is enabled.
1087 * BackupPC_dump keeps track of compressed file sizes so that compression
1088 statistics can be reported by the cgi interface.
1090 * Aging of old log files now handles compressed log files (.z extension).
1092 * Added configuration option $Conf{IncrFill} to specify whether
1093 incremental dumps should be filled in. Old behavior was that
1094 filling was on. Now it's optional. See config.pl for more
1097 * BackupPC_nightly now cleans and generates statistics for both
1098 the uncompressed pool and compressed pool (cpool).
1100 * Added new utility script BackupPC_zcat that can be used to
1101 uncompresses BackupPC files.
1103 * configure.pl offers various options related to compression,
1104 depending upon whether this is a new install or upgrade,
1105 and whether or not Compress::Zlib is installed.
1107 * configure.pl now makes a backup copy of config.pl before
1108 config.pl is updated.
1110 * added three new fields to the backups file to handle optional
1111 filling and compression stats.
1113 * Added -e option to BackupPC_dump. BackupPC now invokes BackupPC_dump -e
1114 on each dhcp host once each night to verify that very old backups are
1115 expired. This ensures that very old backups are expired even if
1116 the dhcp host has not been on the network for a long time.
1118 * fixed bug in BackupPC::FileZIO.pm that required Compress::Zlib,
1119 even if compression was off. Thanks to Steve Holmes for reporting
1122 * fixed bug that caused a BackupPC queue to get blocked when a backup
1123 cancel attempt was made during the BackupPC_link phase.
1125 #------------------------------------------------------------------------
1126 # Version 1.02, 28 Oct 2001.
1127 #------------------------------------------------------------------------
1129 * Added new script BackupPC_tarExtract to extract the smbclient tar
1130 archive. This reduces disk writes by perhaps 90-95% and disk reads by
1131 50%. Previously, tar was used to extract and write everything to disk.
1132 Then BackupPC_dump would read enough of each file to compute the MD5
1133 digest, and then compare the full file with candidate pool files. So
1134 for each 1MB file that matches a single file in the pool, there would
1135 be 1MB of disk writes and 2MB of disk reads (to compare two 1MB files).
1137 BackupPC_tarExtract instead extracts the archive using a 1MB memory
1138 buffer. This allows the MD5 digest to be computed without touching the
1139 disk. Next, any potential pool file compares are done by comparing the
1140 pool file against the incoming tar data in memory, which only requires
1141 the pool file to be read. So for each 1MB file that matches a single
1142 file in the pool, there are now no disk writes, and only 1MB of reads.
1143 BackupPC_tarExtract handles arbitrary size files and repeated
1144 potential pool matches. If the incoming file doesn't match the pool
1145 then it is written to disk (once the pool is mature this happens maybe
1148 * Substantial changes to BackupPC_dump:
1150 + BackupPC_tarExtract is now used in place of tar.
1152 + BackupPC_dump now reads the output from both smbclient and
1153 BackupPC_tarExtract and merges them into SmbLOG.
1155 + Named pipes are no longer used to connect smbclient to tar
1156 (now BackupPC_tarExtract). Regular pipes are used instead.
1157 This avoids the need to system mknod or mkfifo.
1159 + Locked files on the client that can't be read by smbclient
1160 previously were filled with 0x0 bytes by smbclient, meaning
1161 tar extracted a useless file filled with 0x0 bytes. Now,
1162 BackupPC_dump watches the output of smbclient and removes
1163 any files that smbclient couldn't read. This avoids storing
1164 useless files. It tries to replace such files with a hard link
1165 to a previous dump. These actions appear in the log file.
1167 * added new module lib/BackupPC/FileZIO.pm. This handles pool file
1168 I/O and is used by BackupPC_tarExtract. BackupPC::FileIO supports
1169 reading and writing compressed and regular files and provides all the
1170 hooks for compression support in BackupPC (should be supported in next
1171 version). BackupPC::FileIO also does efficient writing of files that
1172 contain leading 0x0 bytes (by seeking past the 0x0 bytes). This is
1173 helpful when smbclient reads a locked file, and it fills the tar
1174 output with a file of the correct size but all 0x0. Such files will be
1175 later removed by BackupPC_dump. But in the meantime, BackupPC::FileIO
1176 writes such files efficiently (as sparse files), meaning just a few
1177 blocks of disk space will be needed even if the file is large.
1179 * alive/dead counting for blackout now works correctly for DHCP hosts.
1181 * BackupPC resets activeJob on startup, to fix bug when BackupPC was
1182 killed and restarted with backups running.
1184 * added extra non blocking select() in BackupPC to make sure the socket
1187 * BackupPC avoids queuing multiple BackupPC_queueAll's on the CmdQueue.
1189 * Updated BackupPC_sendEmail to correctly parse the locked file
1190 error from 2.2.1a smbclient, so that missing Outlook file emails
1191 can be correctly sent.
1193 * Changed HostInfoRead() in lib/BackupPC/Lib.pm to lowercase the
1194 hostname read from the hosts file.
1196 * BackupPC_Admin provides general summary when the host name is empty.
1198 * configure.pl (and BackupPC) now requires perl 5.6.0 or later.
1200 * configure.pl complains if BackupPC is already running, reminding you
1201 to stop it before upgrading.
