If you want to explicitly start a backup at a certain time, the best way to do it is using a cronjob. For instance, this will start a full backup: 00 05 7 9 * backuppc /usr/share/backuppc/bin/BackupPC_serverMesg backup host.example.tld host.example.tld backuppc 1 if you want to tell it to do an incremental backup, put a '0' at the end of the command instead of a '1'. -- Carl Soderstrom Systems Administrator Real-Time Enterprises www.real-time.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by Make an app they can't live without Enter the BlackBerry Developer Challenge http://p.sf.net/sfu/RIM-dev2dev _______________________________________________ BackupPC-users mailing list [email protected] List: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/backuppc-users Wiki: http://backuppc.wiki.sourceforge.net Project: http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/
