Yes thats the rpm "smeserver-backuppc-1.0-5" (great job by the way)
The servers have about 150G of uncompressed data. So the pool on the backup server should be very large. In terms of RAM, the BackupPC server has 1G and the remote-backup server has about 512mb. I am gonna run a test over the weekend (on the LAN) I dont know too much about programming, but I have alot of experience with Linux. If you need any help or testing with smeserver-backuppc-version3, let me know. I have lots of spare boxes and an idle static IP.
