This is kind of related to my last question, I want to backup a backup to a removable media volume on a certain schedule (in my case once a week) but in your case it would be once a month. I think the answer may lie in using the BackupPC_tarCreate, but I could be wrong. I am still waiting for the list to answer this question as well.

But how to configure monthly (remember each month have another count of days) or yearly (consider the leap year where february have 29 days) repetitions of backups? Maybee it is possible to start the backups from /etc/cron.monthly ? Maybee there is another solution?
