# Backups with Kopia

Warning: Backups with Vup and Kopia have not been tested yet!

Kopia is a fast and secure backup program that can back up your files.

You should use it for backing up many small files that change often, for example system configuration or source code. For most other files (like media files, books or documents) it makes more sense to just use Vup directly, for example with the sync feature.

# Install kopia

# Use Kopia

Enable the WebDav Server in the Vup settings after setting a custom username and password.

Follow the documentation on the official website.

Choose WebDAV Server as the remote storage type and use something like http://localhost:4040/backup/kopia-test as the URL. backup/kopia-test is the path used to store the backup in Vup.
