Dear community,
I have been using BackupPC successfully for several years. With the
advent of the final BackupPC 4 I will reinstall my BackupPC server and

how to optimize the current setup:

Dear BackupPC users,
I have an issue with rsyncd seeming to take forever building the file
list on a otherwise powerful client. I hope you have got a suggestion
how to address the issue. I found reports of similar issues in my web
searches and mailing list archive search but no hint how to solve m

I note that backuppc v4 uses rsync v3.0.9 (in place of File::RsyncP) but is
still in alpha release. How stable is this release?
I have been using BacupPC 4 for a couple of months now and consider it

experience with Ce

configuration file (below) in Apache's default server configuration
directory. Added the perl-suidperl-5.10.1-
Dear Adam,
I have been using this for several months now. I found it to be stable.
Backing up one NAS with 3 TB data with rsync in local network. Backup pool
size is now around 10 TB.

Kind regards,
