Just wanted to supply some information on something I setup yesterday in
a spare couple of hours (yeah, like any hours are spare :)

I know there have been threads on here debating the relative merit of
throwing out all of the data on a backup disk that suffered major
filesystem damage, vs trying to fix it and let backuppc regenerate any
files that might have corrupted data (via setting a

Hi, all. Not having used BackupPC for about five years, I was wondering,
first and foremost, if there had come into existence a mechanism for
backing up open PST files. Secondly, since PST files are
disproportionately large when it comes to incrementals, is there any way
to delete them at an acce
I tend to do this on my installations, because it makes sense for my
environments.
In config.pl I put:
# set the wakeups to 'start' at 8am,

$Conf{WakeupSchedule} = [8..24,1..7];

now everything is going smoothly :)
