No, it is kind of the point of ClientNameAlias. It lets you use whatever name you'll recognize as the host, but still provide a resolvable name or IP address that will work on your network to reach it. It can also be used if you want to split a single large host into separate runs with subsets of directories. You can make it appear like separate hosts for scheduling while still pointing to the same actual target. -- Les Mikesell lesmikes...@gmail.com _______________________________________________ BackupPC-users mailing list BackupPC-users@lists.sourceforge.net List: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/backuppc-users Wiki: https://github.com/backuppc/backuppc/wiki Project: https://backuppc.github.io/backuppc/
