#============================================================= -*-perl-*- # # Host file list for BackupPC. # # DESCRIPTION # # This file lists all the hosts that should be backed up by # BackupPC. # # Each line in the hosts file contains three fields, separated # by white space: # # - The host name. If this host is a static IP address this # must the machine's IP host name (ie: something that can # be looked up using nslookup or DNS). If this is a DHCP # host then the host name must be the netbios name of the # machine. It is possible to have a host name that contains # spaces, but that is discouraged. Escape a space with "\", eg: # # craigs\ pc # # - DHCP flag. Set to 0 if this is a static IP address host # or if the machine can be found using nmblookup. Otherwise, # if the client can only be found by looking through the DHCP # pool then set this to 1. # # - User name (unix login/email name) of the user who "owns" # or uses this machine. This is the user who will be sent # email about this machine, and this user will have permission # to stop/start/browse/restore backups for this host. This # user name must match the name the user authenticates with # via apache. # # - Optional additional user names (comma separated, no white space) of # users who are also allowed to stop/start/browse/restore backups # for this client via the CGI interface. These users are not sent # email. These do not need to be valid email names; they simply # need to match the name the user authenticates with via apache. # # AUTHOR # Craig Barratt # # COPYRIGHT # Copyright (C) 2001-2009 Craig Barratt # # See http://backuppc.sourceforge.net. # #======================================================================== # # The first non-comment non-empty line gives the field names and should # not be edited!! # host dhcp user moreUsers # <--- do not edit this line #farside 0 craig jill,jeff # <--- example static IP host entry #larson 1 bill # <--- example DHCP host entry
