Afaik BackupPC needs a filesystem which supports hard links to share
files between different backups.

As none of the Windows file systems allow hard linking I'd say it's not
possible.

| Hi
|
| I've installed BackupPC on my Ubuntu server, but its hard drives have
| relatively small capacity so I'd rather use my Windows machines to put
| the backups on.
| Is it possible to move the storage media from /var/lib/backuppc from
| local machine to some remote Windows machine?
|
| Thank you,
| Andrew
