Firstly, let me acknowledge how helpful people on this list have been to
date - it is appreciated: thank you.

I want to rename some of the clients that are backed up, at least as far
as the name displayed in the BackupPC UI is concerned. What I've done so
far:

- changed a.very.long.hostname in the hosts file to shortname

- renamed the per-client config file from a.very.long.hostname.pl to
shortname.pl

- renamed the backuppc/pc/a.very.long.hostname directory to
backuppc/pc/shortname

- reloaded the configuration file

However, BackupPC reports that there is now one host that has never been
backed up, namely shortname. 

What do I need to do to convince BackupPC that this host is now simply
being referred to by a different name?

Thanks,
Keith
