.B "/etc/backupninja.conf "

is the general configuration. In this file you can set the log level and change the default directory locations. You can force a different general configuration file with "backupninja -f /path/to/conf".
32
To perform the actual backup, backupninja processes each configuration file in /etc/backup.d according to the file's suffix:
34
.sh -- run this file as a shell script.
35
.rdiff -- this is a configuration for rdiff-backup
36
.maildir -- this is a configuration to backup maildirs
37
.mysql -- mysql backup configuration
38
.ldap -- ldap backup configuration
41
Support for additional configuration types can be added by dropping bash scripts with the name of the suffix into /usr/share/backupninja.
44
The configuration files are processed in alphabetical order. However, it is suggested that you name the config files in "sysvinit style."
54
Typically, you will put a '.rdiff' config file last, so that any database dumps you make are included in the filesystem backup. Configurations files which begin with 0 (zero) are skipped.
57
Unless otherwise specified, the config file format is "ini style."
