One simple possibility would be to use backuppc-fuse to mount the pc
tree and then use normal *nix routines like diff or cmp to find
differences.
If you only care to know which files differ, rather than how and if
you are using the rsync/rsyncd transfer method you could write a
custom perl
See the archives or the Wikki - I have written routines that check the
embedded md4sum checksums (available with rsync transfer method after
the second time a file is backed up) against the file contents. This
checks integrity.
I have also written a routine that adds the md4 checksum to files

As the subject posits, is it possible to issue a dump pre- or post-command
only on certain types of backups? For instance, we run bacula at work, and
apparently the director states what kind of backup is running, either

It appears that if I feed it a list of ; separated commands, that it

*BUMP* *BUMP* Re: BackupPC perl
Lib.pm has a bug that appears twice:
The 2 occurrences of:
$cmd = join( , $cmd) if ( ref($cmd) eq ARRAY );
should be replaced by:
$cmd = join( , @$cmd) if ( ref($cmd) eq ARRAY );
Otherwise you are joining array refs rather than arrays which is
meaningless/error.
Also, I would suggest

Cygwin is another method to access the data, using rsync or rsyncd. In
fact, BackupPC can use four methods to backup the PCs : smb (for
windows), rsync, rsyncd, or FTP. You can configure the method you want
for each
Whenever you are doing a full backup and DumpPreShareCmd fails, I get the
following error in my log:
Can't call method getStats on an undefined value at
/usr/share/BackupPC/bin/BackupPC_dump line 1160.
I posted a similar bug report back in December, but now I believe I
have figured out
