Hi, I found your site via google search on BackupPC yesterday. Lots of nice reference material! 
I wanted to ask, I note that you have some hand-built scripts linked off the page about BackUP; and the last one of these .. doesn’t appear to work / as a link / to show the script (regarding pruning of old files).
URL to this is page is,
http://www.smop.co.uk/mediawiki/index.php/BackupPC
and section I’m talking about appears thus,
[[Media::Backuppc_prune backuppc_prune]] =
I wonder if this is intentional omission, or possibly a typo ?
Certainly I’m interested in this script, if it is available.
Many thanks,
–Tim

Hi
i also reach here by the backuppc and i think your scripts are very useful (THANKS!)
As the official backuppc wiki have a section for scripts, you might want to upload then there… in the mean time i added a link in that page to your blog, so other people can reach to your page
here is the backuppc wiki:
http://backuppc.wiki.sourceforge.net/CustomUserScripts
again, thanks for the scripts

Ah thanks for doing that - I’ll upload them and check they’ve got a nice license on them so people can use them
