Ok... I guess what I meant to ask was "this was merged in January - shouldn't it have made the stable/prod branch by now?" :D

But you're 100% correct.

So I guess this feature never made it to the 18.7 branch (since 18.7.6 only came a few days ago)?

Thanks!

I'm pretty sure I have master installed - rather: I installed from the USB drive image (vga) - is this not based on master? Further, I ran updates to 18.7.6 ... would that not include that functionality?

Am I misunderstanding how OPNSense releases are built/structured? (if so, can you point me to where I might get up to speed? :D)

Thanks for the quick replies!

Any ETA on 18.7.7?

[master]

Hi!

I found a GitHub issue report (https://github.com/opnsense/plugins/pull/458) which suggests that automatic, periodic configuration backup via SCP has already been implemented and merged into master since January, but I've found nothing relating to it within the current release's UI (18.7.6).

Also, the plugin itself (scp-backup) seems to have disappeared, further suggesting that this got added to core as the above link suggests.

However, I can't find the configuration page anywhere.  Did this get scrapped? Did it get pushed out to the 19.X release tree?

This is important functionality for those of us who need to keep backups locally (due to company policies, for instance). I'd settle for a backup via a network mount (NFS? Samba isn't ideal...but better than nothing)...

I can code this manually, but I'd just as soon have a UI to administer it, for consistency's sake (also, it's easier to backup a single config XML that has everything, including its "self-backup" configuration).

Thanks!

Hi!

I see the changes are already done and merged into Master, but I'm new to OPNSense and I'm not sure how I can (easily) install that code (which, from what I've seen, should be relatively bugless and safe to use) on my production instance.

Can you point me in the right direction for deploying (building?) development-grade plugins into a production instance?

Thanks!
