The tarCreate option can be a doable solution as a one-off since the rsync route may require more time to set up but web restores work. Basically it creates a tar that you can pipe back to your restore location: BackupPC_tarCreate -h YOURHOSTNAME -n -0 -s / / | tar -x -C /tmp Or, more elaborately for a remote host over a slow link running as another user than backuppc and ensuring all file attributes can be set when extracting, something like: sudo sudo -i -u backuppc /usr/share/backuppc/bin/BackupPC_tarCreate -h YOURHOSTNAME -n -0 -s / / 2> /dev/null |pv -Cq -B 256 |plzip -1 |ssh SOMEOTHERHOST -- 'plzip -d | sudo tar -x -C /tmp' > About the syntax for executing the restore from the command-line i'm not > quite sure, maybe you could elaborate a bit about that (If you still > think it's worth while). They are actually documented well in the file itself (it is perl so not binary, i.e. you can read the file with 'less /usr/share/backuppc/bin/BackupPC_restore'). Let us know how this round goes.
