I'm using BackupPC Ubuntu package (2.1.2-2ubuntu5) to back up some local files and also some samba shares. All was working fine while I was testing the samba share side of things by just backing up 'pictures' share[1].
Since that was working I decided to back up a whole hard drive on my windows xp machine, so I shared d:\ (data) drive as 'data'. Since 'pictures' is a subdirectory of 'data' I removed that share. Here is the new conf file[2]. Trouble is, backuppc doesn't seem to acknowledge the changed conf file. Keep getting errors[3]. I have reloaded and also restarted backuppc daemon and still no luck. Why is it still looking for 'pictures' share? Why is it not backing up 'data'? How do I get it backing up 'data' as intended?
