One simple possibility would be to use backuppc-fuse to mount the pc
tree and then use normal *nix routines like diff or cmp to find
differences.
If you only care to know which files differ, rather than how and if
you are using the rsync/rsyncd transfer method you could write a
custom perl routine

See the archives or the Wikki - I have written routines that check the
embedded md4sum checksums (available with rsync transfer method after
the second time a file is backed up) against the file contents. This
checks integrity.
I have also written a routine that adds the md4 checksum to files that

The laptops I back up have both a wired and wireless Ethernet
connection with (different) MAC addresses.
I use static DNS so that when the laptops are attached at home they
are given a fixed (known) IP address so that BackupPC can find them
using my /etc/hosts file.
On my old D-Link router, I use

After the recent thread on bad md5sum file names, I ran a check on all
my 1.1 million cpool files to check whether the md5sum file names are
correct.
I got a total of 71 errors out of 1.1 million files:
- 3 had data in it (though each file was only a few hundred bytes
long)
- 68 of the 71 were

Lib.pm has a bug that appears twice:
The 2 occurrences of:
