Static IP from File automated backup

[OutOfTheBox1]

I always use a live CD to create back ups to  SSH hosts.  I would like to create a version of the LIVE CD that can read a small text file from a NTFS partition on the machine being backed up.  In that file I would put host and destination IP addresses, ssh login information, etc. to automate the backup process.  Is it possible, and how would I go about doing it?  I am not even close to being a programmer in script or any other language but am willing to stretch my skills if necessary.

Hi,
Yes, it's can be done. All you have to is to write a script to mount the ntfs partition, parse the text file, then do that job.
As for how to create the customized Clonezilla live, check this:

You can find some of the customized scripts in /opt/drbl/samples/

Good luck.

Steven.
