Hi there,
I've been using BackupPC for 5+ years and think it is amazing.
I'd like to burn my backups to optical for long term storage but don't
want to use tar slices, as they make recovery of individual files
tricky.
Instead I'm thinking of using DAR (http://dar.linux.free.fr) on the

In my experience, migrating/syncing the cpool/pool/pc folder using rsync
(hard links in tact) isn't a practical exercise (but is technically
possible).
The size of your cpool/pool/pc data set will have exponential
implications on the time required to sync (even if no data changes hands).
The s

And then, when the client restores the file, it gets an empty file.
Is there a checking mechanism to ensure the integrity of the restored files ?
i.e. the server can check that the files he is about to restore is the same as
the one he stored previously ?

This is correct?

of smb and it started working as expected. I dont know why but its like
the override for the transfer is not working correctly uder some

where I can. xfsdump and related tools was the "killer app" for me
when I was doing AMANDA tape backups, but restoring from BackupPC is so
much easier.
What's somewhat unique to BackupPC is the large number of hard links,
especially as you add more computers into th
rent
matter, but for "headless boxes" it would make life simpler. Of course,
Windows is a different can of worms--it's possible to set RTC to UTC,
but it is not consistently handled by the OS and applications.

Then your daemon will run in an environment with the local timezone
instead of UTC.
