It assumes that is what you're backing up. So yes, it is required (otherwise, the script is not needed).
I thought it was backing up the router firmware, etc (in my case, to a NAS share which is connected to my router via an Ethernet cable) and not the contents of a USB flash drive.

Essentially, everything but the firmware...
 
Question from a new user of BACKUPMON. Does it actually require a USB flash drive if backups are going to be saved on a network share (in my case, on my Synology NAS)?
Ideally, you want to save your backups far away from your router/USB drive. So in case you're running RTRHTR v1.2 and it lights itself on fire, you still have some good backups laying around somewhere. ;) But I understand, not everyone is lucky enough to have a NAS, or know how to configure a share off a Windows/Linux server or desktop. In that case, it *can* back itself up to the local USB drive connected to your router... but that's definitely not an ideal place to put them.

It's saving a copy of the firmware's .cfg file... which is all you'll need to get all your settings back to the way they were.

So do I still need a USB flash drive plugged into my router for BACKUPMON to work, even if backing up to a NAS?

Unless you need it for entware, swapfiles, skynet or anything of the sort... then you probably want to keep it connected. If you have no such need, then you can disconnect it, and backupmon will just continue backing up your JFFS and .CFG files.

Where are .zip and .gz files saved prior to transferring them to NAS?

If I'm not mistaking, I believe the tar.gz is assembled directly on the target device using the mount point, and transfers all compressed data to it across the network connection. I have not seen any indication that it's building something locally, and then transferring it across as a single file. I'll see if I can find out more about this process. All I know is that some users are using backupmon without USB drives, and don't seem to have any problems with JFFS/CFG backups.

Thanks for setting me straight.
 
New release with a few additions, enhancements and bugfixes! Many thanks to @Martinski for his excellent work on the shared Email library, and huge props to @ExtremeFiretop for wearing down his patience with me formally adopting the crazy complex ways of the ins&outs of Github! :) This is the first official release made where development environment code was formally pulled into the main environment... voila, magic. LOL I just hope I can replicate this setup to my other projects.

What's new?
v1.5.9 - (February 21, 2024)
- PATCH:
Thanks to @Martinski, some significant improvements were made to the email notification feature and functionality. HTML emails are now being sent by default, and have been tested using all major email providers. A new title header is now visible in the email, as well as the ability to bold characters. Looking at adding a secondary email address in the near future as that capability has now been built-in as well, which could optionally be used for text messaging.
- PATCH: Noticed that when the "scheduled backup" item was set to "No", that one of its sub-items continued to stay active. Now, when this item is set to "No", both the time and backup modes are grayed out.
- PATCH: The update logic now pulls the backupmon.sh directly from github starting from versions after 1.5.9, instead of the backupmon-X.Y.Z.sh file based on the version number from the version.txt file.

Download link (or update directly within AMTM/BACKUPMON):
Code:
curl --retry 3 "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ViktorJp/BACKUPMON/master/backupmon.sh" -o "/jffs/scripts/backupmon.sh" && chmod 755 "/jffs/scripts/backupmon.sh"

@Viktor Jaep, do you ever rest?!?
 
Yes, between commits... if @ExtremeFiretop and @Martinski aren't blowing up my DMs. LOL

As @ExtremeFiretop, master of the digital flame, I've transcended mere mortal needs like sleep. My power peaks as the night grows quiet, fueled by the glow of countless screens. While others dream in their beds, I forge dreams into reality, one commit at a time. Sleep? That's just a debug mode for the brain
 
Darn. :( Well I'm at a loss... I'm sorry. Your settings and output look identical to mine, with the exception of that decrypt error at the very top. Perhaps @thelonelycoder has seen this one before?
Hi @Viktor Jaep,

Just want to let you and @thelonelycoder know that the "bad decrypt" error was solved after I changed my password (option 6). Thanks to your suggestion that it may be due to openssl issue! I thought it would be an incompatibility of password encryption algorithm between previous and current version of openssl. Therefore, I gave it a try and voila.

This is how the Google app password, which was used since 2018, is encrypted in the old "emailpw.enc" file (as not being IT background, I used Notepad++ so please accept my apology for any unprofessional view)
Code:
Salted__xxxxx
xxxxx

and the new password in the recent "emailpw.enc" file:
Code:
Salted__xxxxxxxxxxx

This is how the Google app password is encrypted in the Old "emailpw.enc" file, which was created since 2018 (as not being IT background, I used Notepad++ so please accept my apology for any unprofessional view)
Code:
Salted__À:<¿êÈŠF0O‡º
/\jzêiØk¦ö!ðט)ô¸ê·{ó

and in the New "emailpw.enc" file:
Code:
Salted__1šJþ#ëial©¿®á ݼ5|ÿ¤cÝiAü„ä-nɦYÌ
I have a check in Diversion that auto-convertd a password. I‘m not sure I moved that over to amtm.

Hmm, I am not quite sure. I have checked my previous weekly backup copy created by Diversion, and the "emailpw" file dated back on 24th May 2023:

Compared to the new one created on 21st Feb 2024:

Edited to add that it might be Diversion 4.3.3 and amtm 3.7 at the end of May 2023:

Hi @Viktor Jaep,

Just want to let you and @thelonelycoder know that the "bad decrypt" error was solved after I changed my password (option 6). Thanks to your suggestion that it may be due to openssl issue! I thought it would be an incompatibility of password encryption algorithm between previous and current version of openssl. Therefore, I gave it a try and voila.
Glad you figured that out! Would not have guessed that would have been the issue! :)
 
Thanks to your suggestion, too @Viktor Jaep! I am just a curious and novice tester 😛
 
I have been on Merline firmware for 5 years now and never have backup my setting. Your addon was just what I was looking for. I came across this error. How I find the error log?
