Hi,

I schedule backups exclusively with cron with this option and crontab
entries.

$Conf{FullPeriod} =  -1;

5 20 * * 5 /usr/share/backuppc/bin/BackupPC_serverMesg backup zorg zorg
root 1 >/dev/null 2>&1

5 20 * * 1-4 /usr/share/backuppc/bin/BackupPC_serverMesg backup zorg zorg
root 0 >/dev/null 2>&1

Now I want to keep the last 4 weekly full backups + 3 monthly full
backups. So I changed the config.

$Conf{FullKeepCnt} = [4, 0, 3];

I'm not sure if this will work with $Conf{FullPeriod} set to -1 after
reading this part of the documentation.

# Entry #n specifies how many fulls to keep at an interval of
# 2^n * $Conf{FullPeriod} (ie: 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, ...).
