Dear all
At our site files larger than 10BG are usually recreated faster than
restored from backup, therefore we added to the "RsyncExtraArgs" the parameter

I have been running BackupPC for 2 years and everytime I add a client PC (XP
Pro) to be backed up I manually add the machine and its folder paths.
This can lead to much confusion as everytime a different user starts or a
machine is moved the configs all need to be changed.
I would like to backu
