Hi Tim, Same situation here: I don't want to run par2. Because the archive is done on USB drives and it takes too long. It looks between version 1.16 and 1.17 of BackupPC_archiveHost (see http://backuppc.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/backuppc/BackupPC/bin/BackupPC_archiveHost?r1=1.16&r2=1.17), the condition to run par2 has changed on line 157 From ... if ( $parfile != 0 ) { ... to ... if ( length($parfile) ) { ... I've modified the condition back to "if ( $parfile != 0 )" and now it skips the par2 execution.
