You'll have to find a solution that leaves something final on the client,

Hey,
I have a working installation of 3.2.0beta1 on CentOS, but for some reason I
can't get the Archive function to work. Working from the web interface, I
create the archive host, change the target to "/Backups/Archive" (mounted
share on the BackupPC server), check the hosts I want archived, and

Is there an easy to grasp write-up on how to do that? I saw something about
VSS somewhere, but it was a little disjointed.

participate in the system of backups because she's concerned about the
security of her files. She agreed to participate if I can make the system
work such that even I am unable to see the contents of her files. She's

Alternatively, you can use VSS to back them up via BackupPC.

I suppose I could exclude the individual .pst files, which are Outlook.pst,
archive.pst, and some-gobbledygook-that-contains-the-email-address.pst.
Maybe I should see if pfbackup can be configured to drop the backups in a
