However, if you manage enough Untangle installations, +it becomes impractical to log in to each one and navigate to the +backups in a browser. The untangle\-https\-backup program automates that +process for a list of installations contained in a configuration file. +.P +By default, the INI-style configuration file is located at +/etc/untangle\-https\-backup.ini, but that can be overridden by the +\fB\-\-config\-file\fR option. +.SH CONFIGURATION FILE +The configuration file is an INI-style list of Untangle installations +to back up. An example entry is, + +.nf +[Test installation] +host = 192.168.1.100 +username = testuser +password = hunter2 +.fi + +There are currently five parameters that may be set for each +installation: + +.IP \fBhost\fR\ (required) +The hostname or IP address where the Untangle web UI is available. +.IP \fBusername\fR\ (default:\ \fIadmin\fR) +The Untangle admin username. +.IP \fBpassword\fR\ (required) +The Untangle admin password. +.IP \fBversion\fR\ (default:\ \fI14.1\fR) +The major version of Untangle running on this host.
