Hi
I have backuppc running fine with some winxx hosts.
Now I was going to add more hosts to the hosts file, but there is a 
problem... the computer name has a space.
it is win98 running.
the name is like: "Pes Aux"

I tried to put in the hosts file with "" or '' but it didnt work...

any idea for this ?!

thanks


  
  
You must escape the space with a '\'. In your hosts file, this host will look like:

Pes\ Aux

Or, you can also rename this host.

  

that worked. thanks a lot!
change the name could bring some problems cause it is being used by
some other programs and they are production machines that could cause
some problems... 
regards

are you talking about replicating a backuppc server to an offsite location?

if so, the answer is not well. the number of files tends to run rsync out
of memory. smaller installations of a few GB you can get away with; much
more than a few dozen GB and you're likely to have problems unless you have
gobstoppers of memory in the boxes.


for offsite backups, I just do a parallel set of backups to the offsite
server, in addition to the backups to the onsite server. it's far from
perfect, but it is workable as long as you have enough time and bandwidth.
