Great news, thanks Les.
Looking for more documentation now on the per-client configs. I see a
reference to
/etc/BackupPC/pc/$host.pl
under the WinXX part of Client Setup.
Oh... okay. I see. The docs are not very up-in-your-face about this,
but it's covered under
http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/faq/BackupPC.html#configuration_file
On the per-host config file location:
The optional per-PC configuration file (__CONFDIR__/pc/$host.pl or
__TOPDIR__/pc/$host/config.pl in non-FHS versions of BackupPC) is read
whenever it is needed by BackupPC_dump, BackupPC_link and others.
On the scope of per-host config statements:
All configuration settings in the second through fifth groups can be
overridden by the per-PC config.pl file.
Here is a list of the configuration groups and their settings.

not complaining, just checking up on my "sections 2-5" interpretation.

Simplify data backup and recovery for your virtual environment with vRanger.
Installation's a snap, and flexible recovery options mean your data is safe,
secure and there when you need it. Data protection magic?
Nope - It's vRanger. Get your free trial download today.
