Hi folks,

I'm currently having a lot of "Aborted with signal PIPE" errors.  I really
have no clue what's causing them.  I'm only trying to backup 2 linux
(K12LTSP) servers.  I'm in the process of upgrading some hardware,
shuffling the servers around, reinstalling everything, so I have a few
questions about how best to proceed with a new, from the ground up
Backuppc server.  To be clear I'm reinstalling a FC based web server, a
k12ltsp server and the backup server.  So backup server and its clients
will be fresh.

So I find myself wondering.  What's the best distro to put BackupPC on top
of?  It will be the only thing running on this box.  Older hardware, PIII
500 MHz, 384 RAM.  I'm only really used to Fedora.  Will the latest Fedora
Core, with a minimal install be OK?  Are there any gotchas about which
packages to install?  Or a suggested methodology for installing stuff?

Finally, what version of BackupPC would people recommend?  It seems like
the beta has some great new features, but I don't really need more,
featurewise, than 2.1.2 offers, but I've been having all those errors with
it.

So, any thoughts about installing a brand new (on old recycled hardware)
backuppc server would be appreciated.

Thanks,

ck
