That's right, the files aren't in gzip or bzip2 format. The script bin/BackupPC_zcat can be used to uncompress the files. Back to the original question: just look in the PC summary and you will see the compress level for each backup. If it is non-zero then the backup files are compressed. The other way to verify is to look at the cpool (compressed pool) vs pool (uncompressed pool) usage. Craig
