BBSTORED(8)

✨ BBSTORED(8) β€” the Box Backup store daemon, bestie edition ✨

okay so real quick, this is bbstored, part of Box Backup (the manual is section 8, the "system admin" girlies section πŸ’…), and she's the one holding down the fort on the server side. let's get into it 🫢


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

bbstored [config-file]

πŸ’– DESCRIPTION πŸ’–

so basically bbstored is the main character of your central server πŸ‘‘. she just sits there, looking gorgeous, running the whole time. meanwhile all the clients running bbackupd connect to her and upload their files. that's the whole vibe: they come to her, she receives, periodt. πŸ’…βœ¨

the only argument is optional, and it's for when you wanna point her at a non-default config file. no cap, that's it. if you don't pass one, she goes looking for the config at /etc/box/bbstored.conf by default. that's her home base, her comfort zone, her little corner of the filesystem πŸŽ€

lowkey important: the argument is optional. if you leave it off, she's not confused, she's just gonna use the default path like the icon she is.

πŸ¦‹ FILES πŸ¦‹

  • /etc/box/bbstored.conf β€” the default config file she looks for when you don't hand her one 🌈
