backup when at home only

Asked by wwjd

Hi there.

I' would like to use the scheduled regular backups of deja-dup -- but only when I'm at home (using wifi), not when on the move (using g3), in the office (using lan) or somewhere else (using wifi with a differnet ssid).

Is this possible without getting an error message on every bootup being not at home?

Thanks in advance!

This isn't possible yet. It would be an interesting feature (only backup when a certain wireless connection is being used?), but not something I have on my TODO.

Ok, thank you for this information.
I wrote a script which pings to a server in my local LAN before starting the backup.
That's ok for me.
