It appears that there is a parameter for bpsyncinfo -paths, which I would
guess sets up a disk path, much like the GUI, to backup to. You would
probably have to set it back to the media ids when your done, don't know.

"NEW LYRICS TO BEATLES SONGS"
YESTERDAY

Yesterday,
All those backups seemed a waste of pay.
Now my database has gone away.
Oh I believe in yesterday.

Suddenly,
There's not half the files there used to be,
And there's a milestone hanging over me
The system crashed so suddenly.
I pushed something wrong
What it was I could not say.
Now all my data's gone
and I long for yesterday-ay-ay-ay.

Yesterday,
The need for back-ups seemed so far away.
I knew my data was all here to stay,
Now I believe in yesterday.

Thanks alot David, that will work.  I much prefer to use bpsyncinfo to
do this since you don't have to worry about bprd at all, but you can't
have everything I guess.
