hmmm... its close......but i'd like a bit more.

i'd like to have say /etc/BackupPC/template with a vista.pl, winxp.pl, 
localhost.pl, etc etc pre-configured. When i install backuppc on a site, 
i drop in the template files. then into the cgi to create hosts and 
apply a template without having to think about setting up one host with 
the initial settings.

The NEWHOST=COPYHOST would still require me to at least setup one host 
from each different setup.

Regards,

Les
