Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think that if /var/lib/backuppc is full, BackupPC will simply not perform any backups. I'd like an option to automatically delete the oldest backup in order to perform a new backup. This is similar to the way MythTV works, if anybody's familiar with that. When you hit your "episode limit", it lets you either 1) not record any new ones or 2) delete the oldest to make room for a new episode.
How hard would it be to implement this type of setting in BackupPC? -Rob ******************************************************** The information transmitted is intended only for the person or entity to which it is addressed and may contain confidential and/or privileged material.
