Re: [rdiff-backup-users] rdiff-backup for email

[roland]

i do it the other way around, saving rdiff-backup installations on remote 
systems and letting rdiff-backup run only locally:
for avoiding need of twice the diskspace i`m using a special rsync option. 
see 
http://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/rdiff-backup-users/2006-06/msg00069.html

wondering, if anybody is using this method, too.

regards
roland
