BackupPC: How much should be setup by package?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I recently installed F12 and after decided to resetup BackupPC instead
of just restoring my settings from F11 (in case any important changes
were made). After fixing some selinux issues I was able to login to
the cgi interface but I could only get the summary page, not the admin
options. After several hours of searching without finding anything
useful I finally caught a break[1] buried near the bottom of the
documentation. One could argue that it probably should be a little
more in your face. Also, none of the wiki's or howto's that I found
mentioned this step. Of course now that I know to add "CgiAdminUsers"
to my search I can find a few, but hindsight is 20-20.

A few questions:
1. Should an admin user be defaulted, or is the expectation that
everyone should know this?
2. If it is not proper to have this defaulted, where should some
fedora specific documentation go?
3. The default apache configuration for BackupPC only allows
connections from 127.0.0.1. Shouldn't localhost also be defaulted?
