I was wondering if anyone routinely backups their conf files?
Years ago I fell into the habit of using RCS for simple things like
this. Create a RCS directory, use 'ci' and 'co' to keep simple
versions of files.
Well, that surely counts as 'old school' Dave! :)
I didn't realize I was so old, but I used RCS for the same task in the
past. I've gone from cvs to svn to git in the intervening years.
Overkill for running on one machine. RCS is just fine for something simple like
config, dead reliable.
So:
find /etc -cnewer /root/anaconda-ks.cfg | cpio -o -Hustar |
gpg -ea -r bkup_id | mail -s "Daily config $(date)" my_mail@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Compression, validation, and error checking in one shot.
