+# this config file will save various reports of vital system information.
+# by default, all the reports are enabled and are saved in /var/backups.
+#
+# requires dpkg, debconf-utils, sfdisk, and hwinfo
+#
+# (1) a capture of the debconf package selection states. This file
+#     can be used to restore the answers to debconf questions for
+#     packages that you will be installing through (2) below. To
+#     do this, run: "debconf-set-selections < debconfsel.txt"
+#
+# (2) a list of all the packages installed and removed.
+#     this file can be used to restore the state of installed packages
+#     by running "dpkg --set-selections < dpkg-selections.txt and
+#     then run "apt-get -u dselect-upgrade". If you have the 
+#     debconf-set-selections file from (1), you should restore those first.
+# 
+# (3) the partition table of all disks. 
+#     this partition table can be used to format another disk of
+#     the same size. this can be handy if using software raid and 
+#     you have a disk go bad. just replace the disk and partition it
+#     by running "sfdisk /dev/sdb < partitions.sdb.txt"
+#     (MAKE SURE YOU PARTITION THE CORRECT DISK!!!)
+#
+# (4) hardware information. 
+#     detailed information on most important aspects of the hardware.
+#
+
+# here are the defaults, commented out:
+
+# The output from the sys handler will be placed in $parentdir
+# parentdir = /var/backups
+# packages = yes
+# packagesfile = /var/backups/dpkg-selections.txt
+# selectionsfile = /var/backups/debconfsel.txt
+
+# partitions = yes
+# NOTE: the __star__ below will be replaced by the disks found on the
+# system (e.g. partitions.sda.txt, partitions.sdb.txt). If you change 
+# the partitionsfile default below, be sure to include the __star__ 
+# replacement in the filename, or you will get one file for only one disk, 
+# the others being written to the same file, and then overwritten by the next.
+# partitionsfile = /var/backups/partitions.__star__.txt
+# dosfdisk = yes
+
+# hardware = yes
+# hardwarefile = /var/backups/hardware.txt
+# dohwinfo = yes
+
+# If vservers = yes in /etc/backupninja.conf then the following variables can
+# be used:
+# vsnames = all | <vserver1> <vserver2> ... (default = all)
