not the linux scheduler, the backuppc backup scheduler :) it just counts
days with no awareness of months. also, i cannot know that last day of
business unless it had some interface that you could schedule that. i have
good luck with the default linux scheduler. no issues
cygwin+rsync wont actually do any file transfers(at least the ssh client
wont), it is just sending the command to backuppc to start the backup. then
backuppc initiates rsync on the server side to the clients rsyncd server. i
am using the deltacopy program which is an rsync wrapper for windows and
have had no lockup issues at all.
