I can't remember where I read it, but I believe the only current solution is to 
perform the backup to a local drive/folder first. Then copy that whole backup 
directory over to your target server (using rsync or ftp or something). From 
that point on, you should be able to perform incremental backups targeting your 
remote server.

Subject: [rdiff-backup-users] Restart a sync with a TMP

 

Hi everybody,
I have a questions but i havent found the answer in the archive of the mailing 
list.
If the first time i backup a Big file (for exemple 100MB) the copy stop during 
the transfer,the next time i start a sync,rdiff will restart the entire copy of 
the file,even if the TMP file is quiet similar to the real file (for exemple 
90MB)...is there any way to tell rdiff to restart where it stop and to not 
restart the whole copy?
Thanks a lot
