Hi
I run and like the QNAP family of NAS devices
Basically, their model is customer binaries ‘live’ down /opt/bin , and the standard Unix file system (etc, and so forth live at /opt/etc and so forth. This is very similar to the DD-WRT model
The durable (raid-5 protected) store is down: /share/MD0_DATA
and I anticipate setting up a path: /share/MD0_DATA/duplicity for the
default backup store location
I assume I can compile the git CO with a PREFIX of /opt, and all will go well, but do not wish to re-invent a already solved matter. Also, over time as new updates are issued in the git, I would wnat to preserve configuration files, rather than over-writing them, so having a config-example file installed at the proper directories, and then one would ‘cp’ them and edit to taste. -example files would get updated of course
Is there a guide to such setup.
I have a commercial CLI license, recently purchased, but curiously it did not permit entry of a private ticket. As this is a matter of general interest, I have no problem with this ticket being publicly visible
Thank you
