This one is so simple that you could just do it by hand:
- edit the file bin/BackupPC_tarExtract
- look for a line that looks like this:

There is a utility called "patch", the sibling of "diff" (in Windows, you
can get it as part of CygWin). For a quick and dirty hack, you could just

If you have another Linux box on your network, I'd think
it would work better to add NFS to the NSLU2 and mount it
into something with more RAM

I have backuppc running on a very very small system.
It is a NSLU2 linksys running openslug. The NSLU2 is a arm based system
with 1 ethernet 100mbit and 2 usb 2.0 port used to connect to disks.
There is only 32 meg of ram in the box. The box runs a 2.6 linux kernel
and had perl and apache alrea

What about a combination of BackupPC and Openfiler? Op

Hey everybody :o))
I got a strange problem i think :-/
Doug Lytle helped me to point me to
the DumpPostCmd to run an external script.
$Conf{DumpPostUserCmd} = '/script/backuppc/afterbackup.sh $user
$xferOK $host $type';
The if - then is okey. i can see in the
log if backup runs okey o
Another option is to set up a small backup window. I like doing this
better than using serverMesg in case something goes nuts and the backup
doesn't start or finish for some reason. I set up the window from 2 - 5
am. 99% of the time the backup runs at 2am but every now and then it
runs at 3

Hey All,
I've setup BackupPC on a debian sarge box and I'm backing up the localhost

logs like this

putting the script in init.d is not al that needs doing.
You must also run update-rc.d to set what run level things should be at.
Have a look at the man page

the tool for that is BackupPC_serverMesg, and you can run it out of cron.
Here's what I have in my notes, which includes a message from Craig, I
think.

Hi,
Try this one (from my Debian system):
#! /bin/sh
# /etc/i
Hi
BackupPC is working well. I just need to know how to start it on power up.
I have put the script into /etc/init.d but it does not work probably
because it need to run as a user.
Regards
Chris
