Follow-up Comment #4, bug #16897 (project rdiff-backup): i'm of very mixed opinion. if you use a single key restricted to: rdiff-backup --server --restrict-update-only /mnt/backups/ then *any* of the boxes which have that key can do whatever they want to any of /mnt/backups/subdirs... i.e. they could erase some other server's backup. personally i think this is a configuration not worth supporting -- it's not secure. the only configuration which works is to give a dedicated key to each of the servers pushing a backup. -dean _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <http://savannah.nongnu.org/bugs/?16897> _______________________________________________ Message sent via/by Savannah http://savannah.nongnu.org/
