Hi,

New to this list - not sure if my first post worked - so am resending....

I'm trying to backup windows servers with approx 3 partitions of 100G each
over a WAN link. I'm using rsyncd on the windows machines - and the backup
is to a ubuntu server.

This takes 'days' to run and never successfully complete - normally I have
to stop the backuppc  (via /etc/init.d/backuppc stop) and this loses the
already downloaded data....

So, how do you split the backups from a single machine - so each can run
within a reasonable (say 4 hour) timeframe ? Do you have to create multiple
host entries for each machine ? Does this make restore too painful ? Is the
whole issue about number of files / rsyncd performance ....

Is there anything else I should be doing ? MTU size ?

Any help great-fully received,
Dave
