you can delete the contents of the pc directory.  just clear the contents of the pool/cpool directories but dont delete the directories themselves.  That will do it.

Is there a way to clear out all backups on the system?  Ive been
testing with backuppc, and want to start from scratch again.  I want
to keep the hosts and scripts ive setup, but i want to clear out all
backed up files and start over.  If i remove the "pc" and
/var/lib/backuppc/cpool directorys will they be recreated when a new
backup is started?  What would be the easiest way to do this?  And i
dont want to wait for the nightly process to run.

Thanks for your help.

Linux, because I'd rather own a free OS than steal one that's not
worth paying for.
