I have been spending time further automating my backuppc solution and
I'm back to "automatically sending archives offsite". At the moment we
will use a script to put archives into a folder and use an offsite
backuppc to pull them off (which gives a great interface for viewing).
For my small poo
Isn't this just a matter renaming/moving directories in /var/lib/backuppc/pc?
mv /var/lib/backuppc/pc/hostname2/0 /var/lib/backuppc/pc/hostname1/31
etc. Plus the logs.

If the data is non-overlapping, restore the "dead data" to the live

you can't figure out which data is unique then the backups probably
aren't of much use anyway. By the time you need them, you really won't
know what's going on.

i think that on one hand, this may not matter, because pooling would make
sure that files are only stored once.
but it does make a bit of a mess in so far as having one machine refer to
one thing goes.
i'd like to do something similar (the machines on one network are very
poorly named, and i didn'

I have a situation where a single laptop was replaced twice, but with
all the data ghosted from one laptop to another. The computer name was
then changed, and a new BackupPC entry created. I therefore have three

the same set

You're right, that's the case. I did not install it myself and didn't
