Title: Can't start Backuppc
Hey everyone...
Was hoping someone might be able to help me with this. I have had Backuppc running for a while, but after being away for a week, I can back to find it overloading the cpu so I restarted the box... Now I get :
/etc/rc.d/init.d/backuppc start ..
Hi,
I've been using BackupPC for a month now, and I like it very much!
I have two questions:
1. Is it possible to use regexps for the $Conf{BackupFilesExclude}
variable? The goal is to be able to exclude ay users

No problem! Like you, I spent a while trying to wrap my head around the
way I was running BackupPC, to make certain it was a realistic
procedure. I'm glad to see others have come to use similar methods!
For the future I plan on implementing your method of disk rotations,

Is this a Gentoo box?
I've had a similar issue once on my machine. See who the owner is for
/backup and see what /etc/conf.d/backuppc says for owner.
Maybe an emerge world busted the permissions.
Likely a bug in the ebuild perhaps?

Software error:

Annoying. Could be patched in rsync, though. I bet that

Yeah, you're right - i think of this as all being rsync based

Hi, all,
I recently reinstalled BackupPC on a new backup server, and it's running
well (backing up over 1 TB of data daily/weekly). That is, except for some
errors for one of the backed up client partitions. Here is an extract of

Hello Justin,
1. An ADS domain group is fine. You don't need local Linux groups, so
revert to
$Conf{CgiAdminUserGroup} = 'backuppcadmins';
in your config.pl file, but note that you have a space in your own
setting, which shouldn't be there.
2. I was tempted to say that you hadn't
Hi Justin,
Because of the line in smb.conf that says

your users can log in with just their user names. This works for me,
and I'm surprised it doesn't seem to work for you. Just to be sure,
check that the line is present in smb.conf. It seems
