- From the backuppc server, login as the backuppc user, and run the command:
/usr/share/backuppc/bin/Backuppc_dump -v <clientname>
The command Backuppc_dump may be in a different place depending on your
installation.
Send the output to the list, and we should be able to see more detail on
what is happening.
