Hello,

I have been picking through the BackupPC documentation   and I havent 
been able to find much on the topic I am interested in at this point.

I have a site with a Ubuntu  server installed at.   I have a second site 
where we would like to install backuppc to provide incremental backups 
of the linux server.

I will use rsync over SSH to carry the data,   The problem I am having 
working out is if what I have planed will actually work.

If I perform a single full backup on site at the start of the 
deployment,  then move the backuppc server to the remote site and then 
tell it to perform only daily incrementals from now on,   is this going 
create masses of network traffic?

Idealy I would love the system to be able to sit in place and make 
regular incrementals of the data with the most minimal of network 
traffic requried to backup the data.

If the above is not appropriate, How would I perform the sort of backup 
I am looking for,  being mindfull that the WAN link is not high speed 
(its an ADSL1 link) and so we really dont want to EVER have move large 
amounts of data per night.  IE:  1GB a night may be just a little large...

Appologies if this question has been asked before and answered,    if 
there is a link to the answer then I would love to see it!  Thanks for 
your help!

Regards,
David Crisp
