I don't know the details on the problem with rsyncing hardlinks. I just know that rsync cannot deal with the number of hardlinks generated by BackupPC. As to how I get my 750GBs of backups offsite... sneakernet. :) I have a 3-member raid 1 array with the third member being a removable drive enclosure. When I need an offsite backup, I pull this drive, deliver it to a secure storage location, and replace with a new drive. It only takes about 3 hours for the new drive to sync up with the rest of the array. -- Bowie ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Crystal Reports - New Free Runtime and 30 Day Trial Check out the new simplified licensing option that enables unlimited royalty-free distribution of the report engine for externally facing server and web deployment. http://p.sf.net/sfu/businessobjects _______________________________________________ BackupPC-users mailing list BackupPC-users@lists.sourceforge.net List: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/backuppc-users Wiki: http://backuppc.wiki.sourceforge.net Project: http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/
