As an aside, it is possible to run sbackup scheduled as user using
crontab, but this cannot be configured from within the Simple Backup
Config tool. I use Gnome Schedule tool to set it up. The commandline
that you want to run is '/usr/share/sbackup/sbackup-launch'.

Back to your original/other question:
The sbackup config for root can be found in /etc/sbackup.conf

It should look something like:

[log]
file = /var/log/sbackup/sbackup.log
level = 20

[places]
prefix = /usr

[schedule]
anacron = daily

[dirconfig]
/var/run/ = 0
/var/cache/ = 0
/var/ = 1
/home/feenstra/ = 1
/var/tmp/ = 0
/usr/local/ = 1
/etc/ = 1
/var/spool/cups = 0

[general]
target = /media/backup-disk/backups
format = gzip
followlinks = 0
purge = log
maxincrement = 30
lockfile = /var/lock/sbackup/sbackup.lock
splitsize = 0

[report]
from = SBackup Daemon <feenstra@ext>
