Ok folks I've got everything up and running just fine now and am ready to 
transition from my old manual rsync scripts to backupPC.   But for the 1st 
backup I'm wondering if there is a way to shortcut the process.

Reason:  I have about 600G to backup, and the machine running backupPC is (at 
my mom's house) far away.  It will take several weeks to push a new full backup 
over the internet connections - but a full copy of the directories to be saved 
is already there on that machine.

Is there any way to manually fill the pool the first time (or similar method) 
to save having to move all the files across the link distance link on the first 
backup?


I tried to answer my own question by inspecting the files in under the hostname 
directory in /var/lib/backuppc/pc   but it seems the files have characters 
appended to their names and so forth so wasn't immediately obvious how to 
manually work on that.

thanks
matt
