## Description

The bbackupd-config script creates configuration files and client certificates. It takes at least six parameters:

config-dir

- Configuration directory. Usually `/etc/box`.

backup-mode

- Either lazy or snapshot.

account-num

- The client account number. This is set by the bbstored administrator.

server-hostname

- The hostname or IP address of the bbstored server.

working-dir

- A directory to keep temporary state files. This is usually something like `/var/bbackupd`. This can be changed in `bbackupd.conf` later on if required.

backup-dir

- A space-separated list of directories to be backed up. Note that this does not traverse mount points.
