BackupPC's README file for Fedora & EPEL

## BackupPC's user
For security reasons, backuppc user cannot log in. If you want to start manual
backup (ie for debugging), you'll need to set it a shell :

Permanent:
usermod -s /bin/bash backuppc

or

Temporary:
su -s /bin/bash -l backuppc


Do not forget to create an SSH key (ssk-keygen) as the backuppc user and copy
it to remote computers if you plan to use tar/rsync over SSH backup method.

The easiest way to do this (after logging in as the backuppc user) is to use ssh-copy-id

ssh-copy-id <user>@<host>


## BackupPC's web interface
The CGI web interface is located at :
http://localhost/BackupPC

You will need to create users in /etc/BackupPC/apache.users :
htpasswd /etc/BackupPC/apache.users <username>

Once complete, add that user as an admin in config.pl:

$Conf{BackupPCUser} = '<username>'
