Hi,

I was playing with a different configuration of one of my machines. I
did one back up one way and then changed the configuration of what I
want to back up. The client machine is a Windows box and luckily I was
just playing because of the following...

When I changed which "shares" I wanted to backup (through samba
client), the ones that were there already all backed up disappeared.
They disappeared not just from the web-based interface, but after
checking the actual back up location on the disk, I saw that they
disappeared completely.

Is this a normal behavior for BackupPC? I mean, if I accidentally
change what I want backup and take out the configuration of what I was
backing up before, it is supposed to get rid of every backup there was
for the directory that I was backing up before???

Seems like such an odd behavior! Just because I don't want to back up
some directory anymore, doesn't mean I don't want the previous backups
to still be there!

I hope someone can explain this to me.

Thanks,
Yaakov.
