rsync alone makes this box pretty much incapable of running backuppc. 32MB
of ram minus running system will give you at most 20MB usable under BEST
CASE scenario, which is about 150,000 files on a client MAXIMUM, which is
just not enough for many many clients. also, that CPU is just not powerfull
enough to do the work in a reasonable amount of time. your looking at many
many hours to do one small backup.
you need a real PC to do backuppc on with some CPU power and RAM. At least
p3 500mhz and 256MB ram, prefereably much much more.
I run dual-core opterons with 2GB ram which is about 100x more powerful.
