I installed BackupPC 2.1.2-5 on an Ubuntu 6.10 server system for local
backups. The only tailoring I needed to do was:
* defined the directories to be backed up
* modified $Conf{TarClientCmd} = '/usr/bin/sudo $tarPath -c -v -f - -C
$shareName+'
. ' --totals';
* added $Conf{TarClientRestoreCmd} = '/usr/bin/sudo $tarPath -x -v -f - -C
$shareName+'
. ' --totals';
Full and incremental backups appear to be working fine. I can
successfully restore files, except BackupPC reports '#xferErrs=1".

So far, I have not found which part of the code thinks there is an error
in the restore.
Although a minor problem, any suggestions for getting ride of this issue
would be appreciated!
Thanks, Norbert
