it has been asked before, and i believe the answer was that backuppc is
coded to use rsync2.x and will only speak that and not use any of the new
features. hopefully 3.2 will include rsync3 support.

a)you can only use 1 filesystem for backuppc so you either need just 1
filesystem or to use LVM or something to merge up multiple disks into 1
filesystem.
b)rsync is perfect for many non-changing files as it will make no attempt to
back them up, it will just check to make sure they have not change
Install a new backuppc server ( or one in a virtual machine ) and then mount
your NFS network drive to the $TopDIR which is likely to be
/var/lib/backuppc if you are using debian or ubuntu. You can go to vmware
and download an ubuntu 8.04 server image that is ready to run and do a quick

The configurations options are a bit misleading. Rsync's implementation in
BackupPC is pretty complicated. BackupPC uses the rsync binary to initiate
the transfer, but then uses File::RsyncP to handle the actual file
transferring.
File::RsyncP is a full implementation of the rsync protocol from
To be clear, BackupPC needs lower-level access to the rsync protocol in
order to interface with the pool correctly. File::RsyncP was written
specifically to support BackupPC, and to current knowledge is the only
program that uses it.
In the near future, I plan on updating File::RsyncP so that Bac

Hello,
just, to get it right: It's not a rsync implementation in Backuppc, but in
perl (CPAN), right?
Why isn't backuppc using the binary?

I think, youcan do that yourself, can't you?
1) Update your server to rsync 3.01
2) Update your clients to rsync 3.01
3) Use the appropriate options in the transfer-configuration of backuppc.
Greetings,
Hendrik

Hello Hendrik,
rsync v3.0 does offer a lot of good features that will affect performance,
but it is not usable out of the box. BackupPC has its own implementation of
the rsync algorithm, the File::RsyncP module on CPAN. In order for us to
get the benefits of this update, File::Rsync needs to be

The incremental-recursion algorithm would be a huge win for a lot of our
backups, in particular for doing backups of larger mail servers that have
MailDir as the store. Is there any plan for migrating that in?

Hello,
I'd like to backup some files in addition to the local harddisk also to a

The files are my photos, that are probably the most valuable data I have.

Hi all,
I use backuppc on a suse linux server to back up a number of computers on a

Now somebody has stolen my suse server. I still have the network disk
though.
What is the best way to retrieve all my data?

Hello,
interesting. Thanks for your reply.
My backups take longer. Much longer. My last incremental took nearly 280
minutes for about 600 MB. This is over a 54 Mbit Wlan connection. But even
over this connection 600MB are transferable in a fraction of 280 minutes...
