BackupPC does not pick up where a 'partial' transfer left off in many cases.
I don't fully understand the mechanism (tho it is somewhat explained here:
http://osdir.com/ml/sysutils.backup.backuppc.general/2004-08/msg00013.html
); but the result is that perfectly good files are deleted from the part
There's another backup system I've used that will allow what you are
looking for. It's called rsnapshot. It is lacking in some features
that BackupPC has, but it is a good program and you might want to look
into it.

Hi there again,
Another question,
all backups are stores in /opt/backuppc/files/pc
which is find
I'd like to make these files public (readonly) in my samba server (in sme7.2),
