Whatever. - I help people but have high expectations that if I am going to invest time in helping people with answers then I in turn expect those seeking help to invest time and effort in troubleshooting the problem in advance and formulating a specific question. This is a sysadmin-level tool and I don't get paid to coddle users. - You have no standards for how questions are formulated and then proceed repeatedly to give diametrically wrong advice. Garbage in, garbage out. Similarly, - I spent significant time today reviewing the code and verifying my understanding of BackupPC before answering - You seemingly spent zero time researching the problem and just cited your vague understanding of how BackupPC works based on information that you admit is from "quite a few years" ago Who is a more helpful contributor to the list?
