Bowie,
Thanks for answering!
I have one full backup of my client but the internet is very slow ... and
is taking too long to finish the backup.
I need to have one complete backup and others partials, how can i do that?!
My problem is that: i do that by the internet, it is 20GB of data and my
client have a link with 512k upload and here i have 10MB of download.
The method used is rsyncd.
Atenciosamente,
