I have a "spurious" backup of one of my machines that shows up on the
web interface as a backup but when you click on it you get the error:
"Error: Directory /var/lib/BackupPC//pc/mymachine/0 is empty"
Looking in /var/lib/BackupPC/pc/mymachine, I see that indeed there is
no "0" directory.

Rsync only transfers the changed files -- even on full backups. Smb
will require a periodic full transfer of all files. Basically, rsync
requires much less bandwidth if you have a fairly large amount of static

Hello,
I developed a patch for my personal use and it has been working successfully
for more than a year. It has the purpose of restricting the schedule of a
backup to a definite time window and breaks up the default logic of starting a
backup as soon as a computer is on the network.

Hi all!
For some time I had trouble with rsync and ssh.
My problem was that the ssh connection would stop after a few seconds
with this error in backuppc log:
Got fatal error during xfer (fileListReceive failed)
