Hi,
I try to manually manipulate a Restic backup created by NS. The restic took asks for an encryption password. I don’t remember having set one, and the documentation doesn’t say anything about this. Is the key stored somewhere ?

Do you think the password should be visible and editable by the user?

Not so sure, but that should certainly be documented

For the developer manual, I think it’s this document:
======================
nethserver-backup-data
======================
This module implements data backup for NethServer using different engines.
Available engines:
- duplicity: execute a full backup once a week, an incremental snapshot all other days of the week. Compression is enabled by default, encryption is not currently supported.
It supports only storage backend which can be mounted on a local directory. Used also for the single backup.
- restic: always execute incremental backups using file deduplication. Encryption is always enabled, compression is not implemented.
It supports local and remote backends.
- rsync: Time Machine-style backup using rsync. Very fast and reliable, the destination contains just regular files which can be easily accessed.
The ``nethserver-backup-data`` package requires ``nethserver-backup-config``.
Configuration

Hi Thomas, and welcome to the NS community ! I believe that it is a generated password, at least it’s the case for all NS services I know.

I’m ready to do it but often the link to GitHub is broken.
