Try to find the file Lib.pm and modify the $TopDir in it.
That's all.

Hi Ken,
I too use Debian, and love it. I kept notes of how I set up BackupPC,
because I wanted to be able to repeat the setup process. My howto is
attached.
I'm not sure what an 'md' drive is, but here's how I move the BackupPC files
to a different location (in this case, a hard drive that's been mounted as
/backups)
- Stop BackupPC:
/etc/init.d/backuppc stop
- Copy the BackupPC files to the new hard drive
cp -a /var/lib/backuppc /backups
- Delete the old files
rm -r /var/lib/backuppc
- Link the new location to the old location
ln -s /backups/backuppc /var/lib/backuppc
- Start BackupPC Again:
/etc/init.d/backuppc start

I've just been searching for backup methods and came across backuppc, which
was described as easy to set up.
well I've install it on Debian, and its up and running, i've added a remote
machine to the hosts file, and it's just done a local machine backup.
But
I'm getting access denied errors on the local machine backup
I can't find where to change the backup location, i want it on a raid5 drive
and not on my operating system drive.
It says it's putting them in /var/lib/backuppc/pc/localhost/0 but i want
them on an md drive.
On the remote machine, can i just select specific folders to back up or is
it all or nothing.
Is there a 'simple get up and running' document anywhere ?
many thanks
Ken
