+# This script is designed to check a backup directory populated with
+# subdirectories named after hosts, within which there are backups of various
+# types.
+#
+# Example:
+# /home/backup:
+# foo.example.com
+# 
+# foo.example.com:
+# rdiff-backup .ssh
+#
+# rdiff-backup:
+# root home rdiff-backup-data usr var
+#
+# There are heuristics to determine the backup type. Currently, the following
+# types are supported:
+#
+# rdiff-backup: assumes there is a rdiff-backup/rdiff-backup-data/backup.log file
+# duplicity: assumes there is a dup subdirectory, checks the latest file
+# dump files: assumes there is a dump subdirectory, checks the latest file
+#
+# This script returns output suitable for send_nsca to send the results to
+# nagios and should therefore be used like this:
+#
+# checkbackups.sh | send_nsca -H nagios.example.com
