I would like to get 3.2.0 as well but there's a 2 fold problem[1]:

Hi,
For the second time in a few months, one of my BackupPC clients has
disappeared from the hosts file. When I went to add it back, I noticed
another client missing. I added the first client back in and in the log
it showed the second client as being removed.
Has anyone seen this happen to th

Resolved.
After looking at the file list, we found a 102GB log file, rsync doesn't like
large files and there are a ton of threads about why.
Troubleshooting steps that were taken that actually isolated the issue
strace -p $PID (The output look like it was catting the file)
lsof -f | grep r

One minor nit pick. The header still makes 5 references to "zip
archive" which I presume is left over from the original script you
based yours on.

The usual (perhaps only?) reason for not being able to fork is that you
have run out of resource

I was recently sub-contracted to setup BackupPC for a business and
everything's fine so far but I was hoping to make some improvements.
1. On the server, which is a Xeon Quad 2GHz machine, I've got a rsync
over ssh dump that's been running for over 12 hours which is about
300GB into a 800GB share.
I am running BackupPC 3.2.0. The line where it fails is:
if ( !defined($pid = open(CHILD, "-|")) ) {
So it looks like it is attempting to fork...

Good midday,
Since we weekly want to store all backups on an external HD in 7zip
format I created this script to exract the latest backup so I can
later add it to a 7zip archive. You might also enjoy it.

Good evening,
First of al great product! :) At work I had to configure a backup
