OK, so, say I were to mount an SMB share using cifs, and have BackupPC go there? Would that work? Or does it need hardlinks in the actual archive store?
If I cannot use a Windows computer, can I store it somewhere else on my computer then, and have the Windows computer access it? Or is that going to hit the same problem? Essentially, the Windows computer creates redundant backups of what BackupPC makes using Windows-only *sniff* software.
