Hello All! I am created mini-tools for Mikrotik configuration backup over SSH.

One function - Backup and sending e-mail on failure. The program is written. NET.

Can run with a key "Backup" (command line, sample "MikrotikSSHBackup.exe Backup") for background backup. Download - https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/101 ... Backup.zip
GitHub - https://github.com/psionika/MikrotikSSHBackup

It will be good if somebody come in handy

Very nice! Thank you!

Nice tool, thank you.

Just a small bug: If regional settings on the host computer include forward slash, the path of the backup file can not be created, since Windows doesn't allow slash in file names.

e.g. Date setting MM/dd/yyy will try to create invalid file name "rb450, IP 192.168.1.1 02/19/2014 09-15-09.txt" and give an error message.
while yyy-MM-dd will create "rb450, IP 192.168.1.1 2014-02-19 09-15-09.txt" which is OK.
Creating/parsing your own date string is needed for portability.

FIXED: Changed in the file creation date to the substitution That cleared up the problem with the creation of files with different regional settings.

ADD: Editing by double-clicking on the row

ADD: Close settings and add/edit forms after press ESC

ADD: Added progressbar when working backup through the form

I've only been able to play with this a little, but so I love it. Thank you for putting this together!

Thank you for the fix. This is a really nice tool.
The only thing it is missing is a restore button

Nice tool, thanks.
I have a feature request:
1. add ability to define port used by SSH service, currently is fixed to 22. I always use non-standard port for SSH to prevent automated port scanning.
2. some kind of credentials encryption in 'data.xml' and 'settings.xml' files. Maybe I'm slightly paranoic

Best regards,

Maybe I'm slightly paranoic

Once you enter the world of routing & switching, you can't help but become paranoid

• ADD: SSH port parameter
• ADD: Create context menu (add, copy, edit, delete)
• ADD: Add to context menu - "Connect over winbox" (connect if the ssh user has rights to connect and winbox.exe located in the same folder as the program)
• ADD: remove color and stateBackup after press :"Start Button".
• ADD: Encrypt data.xml (for command run "MikrotikSSHBackup.exe Backup YourPassword")
• CHANGE: Move email settings to data.xml (for Encrypt)
• CHANGE: Remove ProgressBarForm and add progressbar in statusstrip
• FIXED: Tab key order in AddEdit Forms

arxont, I am really very impressed with this program and with you improvements you have made with it. Thank you! Can you explain how do this:

ADD: Add to context menu - "Connect over winbox" (connect if the ssh user has rights to connect and winbox.exe located in the same folder as the program)

Nice.

@arxont
GitHub have this thing known as releases. Consider putting the binaries there... and maybe tag some versions?

Thank you for your nice tool.
If possible could you please add box to set time to launch backup

Nice tool
I have request if possible to put time box, so that I can set the time when a backup script would run

Hello. No this functional.
Use standart windows Task Scheduler (or other realizations - xStarter, nnCron)
