Help › Backing up

“Anything on your network can reach the stored backups”

The server's console warns, under Settings → Storage and protection, that Anything on your network can reach the stored backups.

Why

Servers installed before version 0.4.9 accept storage connections from anything on the network, including a request to delete. New installations are protected from the start; an upgraded server keeps its old setting until you change it, because PCs on older versions cannot identify themselves and would be locked out.

What to do

1. Upgrade every PC to the current version.
2. Look at the list on that page of what has connected without identifying itself in the last day. When it is empty, every PC is ready.
3. Press Allow only enrolled machines.

A PC still on an old version will then be refused until it is upgraded. Nothing is lost; it backs up again once upgraded.
