I'll say the're config files ; but I'm not sur to understand what you
mean by state files...

There are several files :
- hosts : lists hosts/ips/users to backup
- config.pl : main BackupPC configuration file (what to backup, when to
do it, which method should be used, etc...)
- pc/*.pl : config files per hosts. These one pêrmit to ovverride some
of confi.pl directives (what, when, method and do on).

Hope this will be a little more clear.

Johan
