Backup

• Backup done with deja-dup, which use duplicity as back-end
• Duplicity can't access samba share. Instead mount samba share locally, and use file:///smb/lacie-cloudbox/sharename instead. Note the triple slash.
• View available backup:

duplicity collection-status file:///smb/lacie-cloudbox/beq06659

• List file in current backup

duplicity list-current-files file:///smb/lacie-cloudbox/beq06659

Metadata information is stored in ~/.cache/duplicity. Attention, it seems this can grow quite large.

To do

• Current backup only includes files that are readable by user beq06659. It should include all files.
• Exclude some unnecessary folders. Organize these folders to ease future backup.
• Backup / filesystem (at least /etc, /usr/local)
