NAME

       ssh_filter_btrbk - ssh command filter script for btrbk

SYNOPSIS

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

DESCRIPTION

       ssh_filter_btrbk.sh restricts SSH commands to commands used by btrbk. It examines the
       SSH_ORIGINAL_COMMAND environment variable (set by sshd) and executes it only if it contains commands used
       by btrbk.

       The accepted commands are specified by the "--source", "--target", "--delete" and "--info" options.

       The following commands are always allowed:

       •   "btrfs subvolume show"

       •   "btrfs subvolume list"

       •   "readlink"

       •   "cat /proc/self/mountinfo"

       •   pipes through "gzip", "pigz", "bzip2", "pbzip2", "xz", "lzop", "lz4" (stream_compress)

       •   pipes through "mbuffer" (stream_buffer)

       •   pipes through "pv -L" (rate_limit)

       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

OPTIONS

       -s, --source
           Allow commands for backup source: "btrfs subvolume snapshot", "btrfs send". Equivalent to "--snapshot
           --send".

       -t, --target
           Allow commands for backup target: "btrfs receive".

       -d, --delete
           Allow commands for subvolume deletion: "btrfs subvolume delete". This is used for backup source if
           snapshot_preserve_daily is not set to “all”, and for backup targets if target_preserve_daily is not
           set to “all”.

       -i, --info
           Allow informative commands: "btrfs subvolume find-new", "btrfs filesystem usage". This is used by
           btrbk info and diff commands.

       --snapshot
           Allow btrfs snapshot command: "btrfs subvolume snapshot".

       --send
           Allow btrfs send command: "btrfs send".

       --receive
           Allow btrfs receive command: "btrfs receive".

       -p, --restrict-path <path>
           Restrict btrfs commands to <path>.

       -l, --log
           Log ACCEPT and REJECT messages to the system log.

       --sudo
           Allow btrfs commands to be called via sudo. Enable this if you have "backend btrfs-progs-sudo" in
           your btrbk configuration file.
