Re: [BackupPC-users] scp only

This really isn't the bailiwick of backup software.  What I do on my
Cisco SAN switches is use ssh to pull a config from each of the
switches (had to setup ssh to access wo/ password).  I  then save the
config in SCCS when their are differences between the current version
and the prior version.  This means I have versions of my configs going
back over a year (since inception) for very little disk cost and I can
easily diff between versions using SCCS.  I have a cron job that pulls
the config once a hour so I catch ad-hoc changes that are made fairly
quickly.
