Very. What you end up doing is setting up an alias which *acts* like a separate host but isn't. It can be a little confusing at first but keep reading until it makes sense :) http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/faq/BackupPC.html#_conf_clientnamealias_ It's getting a little fuzzy but I think what I ended up doing was making a copy of the host in the BackupPC web interface <newhost>==<oldhost> and then setting the ClientNameAlias and updating the backup settings.
