Hi William,
1. to find where extactly is file you want to restore (your backup is in
directory /backup/server1/)
rdiff-backup -r 1D /backup/server1/ | grep index.php
result can be for example /www/index.php
2. now restore that file to temp directory
rdiff-backup -r 1D /backup/server1/www/index.php /restoredir/index.php
note: you have to specify also target file name
I think now you can write simple script do find more files form text file.

Hello,
Is it possible to restore a specific list of files from an rdiff-backup
repository?
I'd like to restore all index.php and index.html files from one day ago to a
temporary local dir, but don't know how to do it, if it's even possible. Even
better would be to provide rdiff-backup with a list of files from a text file.
See also my original question:

Thanks in advance!
