I have used the 'bwlimit' option, but that really only makes the backing 
up of new large even more problematic, as it will now take much longer 
to backup (with greater chance of network problems etc),  and the longer 
time to backup may prevent other files from being backed up daily. Over 
night the link has very little traffic, so I really want to back up as 
much as possible when the load it light. What I really need is a 
'bwlimit' during working hours only.

Cheers
David
