Is it OK to switch between backup methods at any time, or do I need to
do something beforehand?
I'm trying rsync instead of tar again on one of my Snow Leopard
clients to see if it works better. Quite some time ago, I found it to
be considerably slower, but that may have changed.

Try this:
[...@amd backup]$ cat x

#PermitRootLogin yes

[...@amd backup]$ sed 's/[#

Well, that didn't work - Gmail broke the line. There should be a
space after the #, so that any number of spaces and hashes will be
removed.

Hello!
I have a shell script that I use to install BackupPC. It takes a standard
CentOS installation and performs the configuration that I would normally
do to install BackupPC. There are probably way better ways of doing this,
but this is the way I've chosen.
As part of this script, I use s
I have Snow Leopard machines, and I don't mind trying out debugging code
-- though I use the rsync method and haven't had a moment's trouble.

could this have to do with the fact that OSX swtiched the default tar
from gnutar to bsdtar with Snow Leopard?

I think gnutar is still there, you might just have to change the
arguments for calling.

It might be nice if some of the repair tools you guys create were

just a suggestion.

Not without two instances of BackupPC, which is non-trivial.

I use iptables and allow access only from my workstation to the web
interface, disable root and backuppc user's inbound ssh. I also limit
inbound traffic with iptables so the backuppc must open the session to the
client.

I have written a program BackupPC_fixLinks.pl that will go through
both your pool and pc chain to find (and fix) duplicate pool files and
missing links. Part of the fix is to run an equivalent to
BackupPC_Link on missing/broken links.

Hi everyone,
is there a way to do a periodic backup of the pool, like if I want to
store a snapshot of all the backups and keep them on a safe.
I'm quite new to Backuppc and I'm reading around about that.
Thanx!

I'm going to start with pointing out that this is a really bad idea. A
key concept of BackupPC is the idea of pooling, where files shared across
systems are stored only once in the backup pool. In other words, if I'm
backing up two identical systems, there will be one set of files in the
backup

Are you doing something to control the timing of your copies compared to
the changes backuppc would be making? The files in cpool need to be
exactly in sync with the directory snapshots ma

I am not getting my own posts
Backups to two of my Snow Leopard clients using tar over ssh are
failing, while one other Snow Leopard client is successful using the
same configuration.
The error log is as follows:
