is there any way to change that. i would like the option to be able to
manually copy files.
Not the way you think. You can use BackupPC_restore or
BackupPC_tarCreate to do that.
also if i check the folder size it like 100k. if i take that drive to
another machine will i be able to access the files?
Yes, as long as you have a working installation of BackupPC on the
destination. Keep in mind, exactly like BPC3, all the data is in the
(c)pool directories, the pc directory just contains "pointers" to the
pool. In BPC4 this is extended, there is no longer a hardlink, so you
need to look at the attrib files to find the correct pool file. BPC has
all the tools and utilities to do this for you.
Perhaps someone will update the fuse plugin to work with BPC4, which
could make this a lot easier.

Adam
thanks for all the help

ah is in version 3.2 i could just goto the folder and type ls and all
the file were viewable. your saying that has been changed and you can
only view the file through the web interface or using this
backuppc_ls tool. is that correct?
Yes.
