Hi list,

I am using backuppc 2.1.1 on a debian system. I use it to backup laptops 
(among others) with dhcp addresses and it works great. However there is one 
issue:

We have 2 offices that are connected through vpn, one with ip range 
192.168.2.0/24 other with 192.168.4.0/24
the backupserver is in range 192.168.2.0/24. When backing up servers with 
static ip addresses in the 192.168.4.0/24 range there is no problem, but 
there is one user with a laptop who almost always works in the 192.168.4.0/24 
office and backuppc cannot find his laptop. How can I resolve this? His 
laptop is occasionally backed up when he is in the other office but that's 
not enough. A static ip address for the laptop is not an option.

Thanks for the advice!

regards Chantal
