Hi,
I try to backup my windows clients with backuppc as well as cygwin/rsync.
The backup/restore with rsyncd at windows and rsync on linux (run as root)

If you're being prompted for a password, then the public key is being

Greetings. Me again.
I upgraded my backup server and configured two hard drives into a single
logical volume with LVM for my TopDir, and successfully configured
BackupPC to backup a share on one of my host machines. Rejoicing was

you could mess around with LVM snapshots. I hear that you can make an LVM
snapshot and rsync that over, then restore it to the backup LVM. I have not
