Hmmm. I don't quite understand what is happening here. Our current ks

Yes. This is a cronjob that we want to run cheaply and often on a

Martin,
To get past my installation issues, I decided it would be easier just to
modify the existing
XS-163.iso than go download all the git-clone and build it from scratch.
That said, I was able
to use Fedora 7 "kickstart configurator" tool to get the following, I can

Do we know if this XS detection works with UY's school servers?

ds_backup.sh gets called from cron and/or from
NetworkManager, and decides whether it's a good time
to attempt a backup.
It also protects ds_backup.py from concurrent executions,
staggers clients to avoid stampedes, and keeps various
other demons at bay.
From: Martin Langhoff <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
With this patch, ds_backup indicates to the XS that the transfer
has completed successfully by creating an empy .transfer_complete
file.
With this, new_backup_notify() is obsolete and removed.
