[BackupPC-users] Is there a way to restore from the command line?

Long story short, I upgraded to Centos 5.2 and the BackupPC daemon no longer forks into the background. Someone else posted this problem a few days ago but never received a response. Is there a way to run a restore from the command line? Basically I need to restore everything below root "/" on

[BackupPC-users] BackupPC makes some files infinite?

I'm using BackupPC 3.1.0 to backup about ~100 hosts of different sizes, and so far I've been able to deal with almost all kinds of limitations or problems. Lately, however, I'm not able to backup one host. It is a Windows 2003 host with rsyncd. The "share" contains only a few, but rather large
