It got there by way of running a net_install/upgrade-gnumed_server.sh
as that user.

Aaaah, OK, you meant "copy to /etc/gnumed-client/" rather than
"rename to /etc/gnumed-client" ...

I believe it is equally valid either way (putting both under /etc/gnumed/
as well as separating into /etc/gnumed-client/ and /etc/gnumed-server/.

Now, what *is* "gnumed-backup.conf" ? Put it under gnumed-server/ or
gnumed-client/ ?

Is it a server config file because the backup procedure runs on
the server ? (wrong, it can run on any machine)

Is it a client config file because the backup is nothing but another
"database client" - just like the GUI is a client ?
