Greetings all; 2 instant questions about backintime, which I just now installed to make small backups as I work on some machine config files, and some gcode to go with linuxcnc.
This after haveing suffered the of having xmlindent nissfire and left me with an empty xml file of over 250 loc I've had to reinvent from scratch. A round of shingles to the author of that manpage. Now I know its a filter you pipe input to, but thats not mentioned in the manpage. Anyway, I want to setup A) a directory in my home page on that machine B) two profiles to watch 2 directories and their subdirs as two separate progile's. which I've done, both useing the same /home/gene/backup dir for the snapshots. But all I can get out of backintime-gnome is that the backup location is invalid. Its a terabyte drive, 3% used, what the heck is its problem? I own the backup dir and everything to be stored in it. I don't intend to ever backup the system, I have amanda doing that daily for almost 21 years now. Am I using the wrong tool?, it certainly feels like it.
