Have you got a file "BackupPC_Admin" anywhere? That is probably what it
should
point to. But you'll also need a few images and a stylesheet to be in the
right place for things to work properly. If you need any more help, you
probably need to give *a lot* more details, such as which web server you are
trying to integrate BackupPC with.
And, of course,

;-). While you may want to use the web interface, it's not a component
involved in actually making backups.

Hi Holger, 

My original post was a comment over at the Web-based forums under here:
http://www.backupcentral.com/phpBB2/two-way-mirrors-of-external-mailing-list
s-3/backuppc-21/backuppc-on-opensolaris-97029/ so it seems out of context
when it replicates to the list.

I followed the Solaris install guidelines but there seemed to be a lot more
to do to get the package installers & C compiler in place in order to load
up all the other required packages and, ultimately, the instructions:

  cd /opt/csw/apache2/share/cgi-bin/
  ln -s BackupPC_Admin index.cgi 

...are ineffective because, as you say, there's no BackupPC_Admin there. I
am sure that a lot of the hassle I have had is down to the fact that I have
not used OpenSolaris before and I am re-doing the installation. I have been
given some advice on IRC (#solaris) and am following it up...
