Hi All,
I'm just in the process of migrating from our old backuppc server to a new
one. My windows's clients are using rsync with no problem, however my linux
clients using rsync are causing the following error.
Running: /usr/bin/ssh -q -x -l root xx /usr/bin/rsync --server --sender

something?)

I have a big windows share to backup, it contains lots of user data, and
therefore, I have plenty of international characters there.
Unfortunately, this is where BackupPC fails to do the job :(
smb method just breaks on "strange" filenames, and when I used rsyncd,
it converts all "strange" cha
Hi Khaled,
Have you played with the $Conf{BlackoutPeriods} setting?
I don't know if it can do exactly what you are looking for because it
doesn't distinguish between full and incremental backups, but its
certainly the first method I would investigate.
It can be set on a per-host basis. I hav

Hi All,
Is it possible to configure backupPC to run full backups on Saturdays
throughout the day, and even on Sundays?
I am trying in essence not to run fulls during week nights and save them for
the weekend, when they can run day and night to complete.

Hello,
Hope this is the correct place to ask this but I'm looking for a BackupPC
expert who would possibly setup our server and show me how to setup a few
computers so I get the hang of things. Please let me know if you're
intersted.
Thanks,

Hello List,
I have been using BackupPC 2.1.1 (from Debian) to backup a number of
linux hosts over RSync for some time without any difficulties.
But recently I added a Windows 2000 server with several shares to be
backed up over SMB and am getting the following error in the Xfer log:
