backup-manager 0.3.0 released

Well, after some work, here we are !

A big change in this release is the support of scp transfert, based on ssh key authentification. User won´t need anymore to set ftp accounts in order to transfert archives (but it´s still available).

I´ve also added some manpages for backup-manager and backup-manager-upload.

Here is the changelog :

backup-manager (0.3.0-1)

• Added scp transfert mode based on key authentification.
• /etc/backup-manager.conf is chmoded 600.
• Added a lock system to prevent parallel processing.
• Lots of changes in backup-manager-upload, new command line.
• backup-manager can be run for just uploading files with the ´–upload´ flag.
• change of dependences : libnet-perl and ssh ar only suggested.
• Added man pages for backup-manager and backup-manager-upload.
• backup-manager-upload can use a specific private key for ssh authentification.

To grab backup-manager 0.3.0, just use my sources.list :

Feel free to report me bugs, this is a work in progress project !
