Hello Andreas, and thanks for your reply. I'm already using LXC (it works great, btw), but I had an issue with backuppc that I was then able to track down as the use of compression. I was adding "--compress" to rsync options and that lead to strange timeouts and backup aborts.
Isn't that the right way to add compression support to rsync? Since my hosts are on a remote network, compression would really be useful. Another issue I have while using backuppc inside an LXC container is that all the hosts results unpingable, while in fact they are: from the command line everything works fine as expected. Any help will be greatly appreciated, thanks!
