Sweet, I've got it I think. Under Gentoo, it is customary to use
/etc/backuppc and not /etc/BackupPC, and I think that me ch

First off, thanks for sending your changes to the file. I just woke up
(I have a very strange sleep schedule!) so I will get to work to see if
that fixes
Guys, trying to "NOT" backup a file called "core" anywhere
on the system.
In the interface, its letting me create a key, then a
name.
Can I just do "*" for key and "core" for name?
THANKS!

Yes, that is probably it. I don't think my files change that much.
Thanks for the speedy responses :)

Maybe the pooling?
If you have three full backups, any identical files are cross-linked to
optimize storage. I would guestimate that more than 90% of files from
one full backup to the next are unchanged. My BackupPC pool represents
186GB (see "full backups/incr backups" report on "host summary pag

Hi,
I seem to be having a problem with space being cleared when old backups are
removed. For example, I just changed my config files for the 2 hosts I am
backing up to only keep 2 full backups (instead of 3) and 6 incremental
backups (instead of 14). When backuppc ran last night I can see in

Xfer PIDs are now 5876,5875

I could, but I was trying to keep the sources pristine so that upgrades
don't require much in the way of manual intervention (ie, creating a new

back to it when I had time to finish up patching it. As you're seeing
below, configure.pl seems to ignore pathing of the config file. :\
