Mike,

The cpool isn't structured in a way that makes it possible to just copy
recently backed-up files.

Ged's suggestion (just run another BackupPC instance offsite) is
worth considering.  That also provides more robustness to certain failures
(eg undetected filesystem corruption on the primary BackupPC server).
