Very nice.I begin to undestand why fuse :)
On ubuntu 8.04.2, backuppc 3.0.0, I joined backuppc user to fuse group
created /mnt/fuse/backuppc
chown :fuse /mnt/fuse/backuppc
chmod g+w /mnt/fuse/backuppc
user_allow_other on /etc/fuse.conf
changed to backuppc user and run
./backuppcfs.pl /mnt/fuse/backuppc
and I was browsing the backup files.
Some minor problems accessing some dirs (home dirs), guessing unexistent uid
on this machine. I'm not using ldap.
Thanks.
PS: Tried first http://www.unixtastic.com/software/backuppc-fuse.html,
didn't work so well.
