Re: [BackupPC-users] BackupPC integration with Tarsnap

Making one depend on the other gives you a single point of failure for both. That is what I'm doing. Restoring from Tarsnap doesn't require the BackupPC server to be intact so there's no single point of failure. In any event, I got it working. It turns out Tarsnap can consume tarballs directly. No need to point it to a filesystem. -- Keep Your Developer Skills Current with LearnDevNow! The most comprehensive online learning library for Microsoft developers is just $99.99!
