Thank you everyone for the replies. Our server is back online. All that was needed after the tar extraction was a little creativity in copying files back to their original location but after the files were restored the BackupPC server came right up.

Long story short, I upgraded to Centos 5.2 and the BackupPC daemon no
longer forks into the background. Someone else posted this problem a few
days ago but never received a response.

Is there a way to run a restore from the command line? Basically I need
to restore everything below root "/" on our server to roll back to
Centos 5.1.

Thanks,

Ryan
