Sven, You could use duplicity to do this (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DuplicityBackupHowto). It is fairly trivial actually. You could either backup to a local storage medium or to another s3 bucket mounted by s3ql. Duplicity will allow you to do incremental restores of single files as well as entire backup sets. Just a note, if you use duplicity you'll need to be careful where you store its cache files. I actually use a bucket for this. They can get really big, especially if you are backing up a lot of data. brian -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "s3ql" group.
