HI,
since the day I had to install in my home network a new Destop with Vista I
started to face a lot of interconnectivity problems.
BackupPC is one of them.
I'm trying to backup just the Users directory. I properly set the sharing and
the painful access permissions for that dir and all the subdi

I've added the user "respaldo" to the Tape group and if i run the
command directly from the console with the user "respaldo" it works fine.

hey Varuna,
This is how i did it.
If its on the same system:
- Stop backuppc
- move /var/lib/backuppc to the location you want.
- Create symlink:
=> ln -s /location_you_want /var/lib/backuppc
- Start backuppc
I hope this helps,

In all but some unusual cases, use rsync. Most files on a computer don't
