Thanks Les,

what I don't see is what is meant with the -s parameter "share name
*from* which the tar archive is created". 
Would something like this be OK?

/usr/share/backuppc/bin/BackupPC_tarCreate -h polti -n -1 /mnt/USB

I was looking at the "original" commandline I posted, and the things are
almost clear:

/usr/bin/split = has to be used only if splitting archives (I don't need
it);
polti 36 = hostname and number of backup to archive.

Following part is not clear to me:

/bin/gzip .gz 0000000 /mnt/USB *

Is this meaning that the tarball is gzipped? In that case, what are the
parameter that follow the binary path?

Thanks in advance,
Flavio Boniforti.
