2004-03-31 -+- Günther Orth -+- orth@enbiz.de -+- Hi!
Can anyone help me with the configuration of storebackup?
I want to backup a directory and store the files 30 days, 12 backups of the first of a week, 12 backups of the first of a month, 2 backups of the first of a year.
What are the correct timePeriods for this configuration?

storebackup -s <dir> -f <backupdir> --keepFirstOfMonth 12m --keepFirstOfWeek 12???? --keepFirstOfYear 2????

Thanks a lot!

I would like to say, that I'm very satisfied with storeBackup!
But now I have a little problem when I made a backup from /home, I respond this message:

ERROR 2006.05.15 01:09:19 22100 unsupported file type 'socket'

What can I do?
Thanks a lot!

Great program. Thansk for it.

I am trying to backup with storeBackup from a linux machine on a Windows NTFS share shared with Samba. Unfortunately it seems NTFS doesn't support hardlinks. Is this correct? Is there a way to get the very efficient way of storing which is used on ReiserFS etc. on a NTFS share? -+- 193.172.244.202 = Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.0)
