Small Problem with backuppc

[olemadsen82]

Hi.



Im trying to figure out how to change the server Backup Path ( default var/lib/backuppc/*host* ).

I would like to do this on a client basis, I mean so that different users backup to different disks. I have a lot of data being backed up so I need to mount som nas disk to ubuntu. And there fore need to be able to choose different disks.



Thanks a lot.

Is there really no way to do this?

Is there really no way to do this?

edit /usr/share/backuppc/lib/BackupPC/Lib.pm

TopDir => $topDir || '/path/to_new_bacup_dir'

/etc/init.d/backuppc reload

The author recommends that you use a link between the default location and your desired location.
