You need to do it manually or roll your own. Set up an 'archive' host in BackupPC and with that you can get a compressed tar dump of the system. In the archive host config you can say how big each 'split' of the tar image should be. I set mine to make 4200000000-byte chunks, which will fit easily on a DVD[+-]R with a filesystem etc, then I have a script I wrote which watches the archive directory and starts stuffing those files (and as many of the PAR2 files as will fit on each DVD) onto DVDs (or CDs if it finds the files left at the end will fit on a smaller disc). Works for me, you probably want something vaguely along those lines. -- Steve Willoughby | Using billion-dollar satellites [email protected] | to hunt for Tupperware. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Let Crystal Reports handle the reporting - Free Crystal Reports 2008 30-Day trial.
