Can't really answer you other problem, but thought I would add. I use fusecompress fs to place by destination for rdiff-backup - it does file by file compression. So partition mount to /backup/.laptop fusecompress mount /backup/laptop /backups/laptop is the rdiff-backup destination you can work with the files in /backup/laptop just like any other posix fs. files in the /backup/.laptop are the compresses ones, you can use a offline tool to decompress them if you want. I have seen quite large saving specially with things like cvs, maildir etc... [snip] >
