That server message does not exist in 3.0.0 nor in 3.1.0, and that's part of the challenge. Using dump works but is bad for scheduling and requires automatic backups to be disabled and scheduling handled by the client. However, I am hoping it will be included to make things easier. If it is implemented somewhere I'd like to know :) Also, the other thing the solution has to cover is security. Giving clients passwordless access to the backuppc user is not an alternative for most people, as it would in most cases give full access to all other clients. -- Johan Ehnberg Email: jo...@ehnberg.net GSM: +358503209688 WWW: http://www.ehnberg.net/johan/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ BackupPC-users mailing list BackupPC-users@lists.sourceforge.net List: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/backuppc-users Wiki: http://backuppc.wiki.sourceforge.net Project: http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/
