Yohoo!

BackupPC is running fine here and backing up my local servers.

Now I have some remote servers which can be reached through a VPN.
Unfortunately the connection speed is very slow (128Kb/s), because it's
only needed for named, ssh and mail. Additionally it's a line without a
fixed IP, instead the line is disconnected every 24 hours.

Now I want to backup these servers. Obviously it takes more than 24
hours to perform a full backup, so the running backup fails after 24hours.

BackupPC now schedules the next full backup....which runs for 24h and
fails...and so on.

My question now is:
If the full backup fails, does it start from scratch every time or are
some files already stored in the backup and used during the next try, so
it'll finish some day?

Meanwhile, the full backup runs for 5 days, interrupted five times after
24hours...I don't know if it will finish some day.

Next question:
Assume, the full backup is finished after two weeks- will the next full
backup take the same amount of time?

If so, I'll stay with my remote servers on rsnapshot....

Thanks!
