The line that you are sighting is a pretty stock call and is pretty much independent of the rest of my script. I would suggest just abstracting the relevant lines and trying to call the routine directly to see why you can't connect to the server. -- Start uncovering the many advantages of virtual appliances and start using them to simplify application deployment and accelerate your shift to cloud computing. http://p.sf.net/sfu/novell-sfdev2dev ___ BackupPC-users mailing list BackupPC-users@lists.sourceforge.net List:https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/backuppc-users Wiki:http://backuppc.wiki.sourceforge.net Project: http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/

But looking at the code, it seems that these constraints are enforced only by the BackupPC main routine (i.e. daeomon) itself (which then after checking such constraints uses the same server messaging system to actually call the BackupPC_nightly routine). Therefore my standalone routine would NOT enforce such constraints. *Fantastic*. Thank you! That's exactly what I wanted. -Robin -- http://singinst.org/ : Our last, best hope for a fantastic future.
