This document describes server setup for the stoney cloud (Online) Backup service, built upon the Gentoo Linux distribution.

After working through this documentation, you will be able to set up and configure your own (Online) Backup service server.

Requirements

A working stoney cloud installation.

USE-Flages

For a full OpenLDAP directory installation:

echo "net-nds/openldap overlays perl sasl" >> /etc/portage/package.use

For a minimal OpenLDAP directory installation (just the necessary tools):

echo "sys-auth/nss-pam-ldapd sasl" >> /etc/portage/package.use
echo "sys-auth/nss-pam-ldapd ~amd64" >> /etc/portage/package.keywords
echo "net-nds/openldap ~amd64" >> /etc/portage/package.keywords
echo "sys-fs/quota ldap" >> /etc/portage/package.use

rsnapshot

/etc/...

• OpenLDAP, an open source implementation of the Lightweight Directory Access Protocol.
• nss-pam-ldapd, a Name Service Switch (NSS) module that allows your LDAP server to provide user account, group, host name, alias, netgroup, and basically any other information that you would normally get from /etc flat files or NIS.
• openssh-lpk_openldap.schema OpenSSH LDAP Public Keys.
• linuxquota Linux DiskQuota.
• rsnapshot, a remote filesystem snapshot utility, based on rsync.
• Jailkit, set of utilities to limit user accounts to specific files using chroot() and or specific commands. Also includes a tool to build a chroot environment.
• Busybox BusyBox combines tiny versions of many common UNIX utilities into a single small executable. Useful to reduce the number of files (and thus the complexity) when building a chroot.
