[OpenSIPS-Users] Recover running configuration of OpenSIPs

[qasimakhan at gmail.com]

I think a better way than adding copy command to init script would be to
use incron <http://inotify.aiken.cz/?section=incron&page=about&lang=en>utility.
This utility triggers cron jobs based on file system triggers so
you can backup a file when it is changed. You can do SVN/Git commit or even
do an rsync so whenever you change the file it is automatically backed up.

Regards,
Qasim
