-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi,

Where's the issue of being behind a firewall as long as we can start a connection from the laptop to the BackupPC server? > So the BackupPC server can never connect to my laptop, because: > * The BackupPC server doesn't know the ip-address of my laptop. As soon as you use OpenVPN as several times suggested here, the BackupPC server *knows* the private IP address of the laptop and can connect as usual. > * Even if the BackupPC server would know my ip-address, then the request > of the BackupPC server would be blocked by the firewall. Wrong as the VPN connection works as a tunnel. You can even use OpenVPN through http-proxy...
