BACKUP

The Backup Panel lets the user select the backup list to use for a backup.  The user can select either the typical backup lists or the customized backup list or both.

By default, the typical backup lists include all T.Rex files, padmin files, socks files, apache files and selected operating system config files.  The backup lists are kept in the files /etc/firewall/fw.bulist,  /etc/firewall/apache.bulist and /etc/firewall/system.bulist.

The customized backup list is kept in the file /etc/firewall/custom.bulist.

The "Browse/Edit" button next to each backup list can be used to display the corresponding backup list and to optionally modify it.

When the  Continue  button is pressed, hoplite will send a request to the padmin server to obtain a backup of all the files in the selected lists.
