NAME

ssh_filter_btrbk.sh − ssh command filter script for btrbk

SYNOPSIS

ssh_filter_btrbk.sh [−s|−−source] [−t|−−target] [−d|−−delete] [−i|−−info]
[−p|−−restrict−path <path>] [−l|−−log] [−−sudo]

DESCRIPTION

ssh_filter_btrbk.sh restricts SSH commands to btrfs commands used by btrbk. It examines the SSH_ORIGINAL_COMMAND environment variable (set by sshd) and executes it only if it matches commands used by btrbk. The accepted commands are specified by the "−−source", "−−target", "−−delete" and "−−info" options.

Note that the following btrfs commands are always allowed: "btrfs subvolume show", "btrfs subvolume list".

Example line in /root/.ssh/authorized_keys on a backup target host:

command="ssh_filter_btrbk.sh −−target −−delete −−restrict−path /mnt/btr_backup" ssh−rsa AAAAB3NzaC1...hwumXFRQBL btrbk@mydomain.com
