hi

maybe we can move the client-config-files to a subdirectory of __TOPDIR__ with the next release?

for SMB and rsyncd credentials ae stored inside of the config-files

as we already have ssh-private keys in __TOPDIR__/.ssh
a move to i.e.  __TOPDIR__/config
would be a nice implementation

we have an encrypted __TOPDIR__ mounted as /var/lib/backuppc
Keeping data secret is good - but the credentials are not encrypted by default (as inside unencrypted /etc/backuppc)
moving to a subdirectory of __TOPDIR__ will further provide confidentiality

Greetings

Mike
