Gnu tar actually recognizes if stdout is connected to /dev/null (even if
you redirect instead of specifying -f) and doesn't bother to read the

I recently did a large restore, 25Gb in 177 minutes. At a first glance
it seemed to have succeeded, but now I find that in some directories
files have been misplaced. I am restoring from one windows client to
another using rsyncd.
To be precise, the data is still there, but the filenames have

Hello,
Do you use "BackupFilesOnly" ?
With Smb, you can't use "BackupFilesOnly" and "BackupFilesExclude" in the
same time.
For this you have to use rsyncd for example.
Good luck

Re: [BackupPC-users] Rsynd com
There is something I don't understand in the setting of parameters of
BackUp PC
- The function 'Backup File Exclude' is never taken into account
- The use of a ID wildcard respecting the upper case doesn't
change anything. It appears as if no instruction was given.

Hi,
I would like to know the rsync commd that BackupPC use to back-up a client
(Xfer Methode Rsyncd).
I don't use ssh.
I would like just see the command line in order to test it manually in a
terminal.
Thanks a lot.

Ok, I never installed or used BackupPC 2.
The 3rd version must be very simple of using for you.
Good luck.

Hi,
Yes it's possible ton configure the retention period with BackupPC.
You can do that via the web interface or the config file.
Moreover, you can define your value per host or for all hosts and define
it for full or incr backups.
