I have a thought here, thought id run it through the users list before
dropping it on the devs.

My idea was to add a small step to the backuppc process to validate that all
files that should be transfered were transfered and automatically flag the
backup as a partial if there is a discrepancy.

The idea is to simply compare a list of files with some details such as
mtime, size and filename. basically, have a post dump command to run a find
against each share to be backed up on the remote side and on the backuppc
side then compare the files.

The reason for this is that I have found that backuppc can miss a file every
now any then without an error or warning.
