at the same time. Also, specifying the backupninja command allows for
wrapping it in other commands (e.g. to execute it from within a
ssh-agent session so that authentication can happen via the
monkeysphere).

If when is set to just '01:00' (as it was previously), then backups
will never run due to the time format being specified
incorrectly. Backupninja considers '01:00' to be the day of the week
and every time it wakes up to see if it is time to do a backup it
determines that it is currently not the day "01:00" and so it
shouldn't do a backup now. In otherwords, it will never do a backup at
this rate.
I've filed a bug for this issue, because it probably should at least
let you know that you've failed.

and then made better later.
The ninjareport is a pretty bad way of collecting all the backupninja
reports into one email called the 'ninjareport' which contains all the
hosts with backupninja problems, and a notice about any hosts that
haven't reported in for a while.
The way it works is each participating host has a limited command ssh
key installed in /root/.ssh/id_rsa which enables it to rsync its
/var/log/backupninja.log to
ninja@admin:/var/lib/backupninja/reports/$hostname.log. After the
backup runs on the host, it does this rsync.
On v.admin, there is a /var/lib/backupninja/.ssh/authorized_keys which
has the ssh public key part of each host's ssh key, command-limited to
only allow an rsync of their backupninja.log file. There is a cronjob
there that runs once a day and collects new logs and does some basic
figuring and then collects those all into one email.
There are *many* ways that this needs to be improved. From the puppet
side, the approach is all wrong, and there is a lot of dupliacted
configuration that is being done, it needs to be turned into a define
and export and collection needs to be done. The whole thing needs to
be redesigned from the ground up, but I don't have the mental space to
do it right now, and it needs to work :(
