How to use backbin:

  1. Create a share on the backup destination.
  2. Run the bootstrap_cifs.sh file on the Linux server you will be backing up.
  3. Create a credential file that contains username=someuser, password=somepassword, and domain=somedomain. This should be stored at /home/someuser/cred.
  4. (Optional) Run backup.sh to create an initial file level and dd backup of the system.
  5. Run register_cron.sh to register the cron job so that backups will run every night.

Note: All scripts are configurable and can be changed by editing the values of the variables within each script.
