Restore / verify email notifications.

Add include/exclude wildcards.

Add option to set up a restore on the server side.

Get metadata transfers to use librsync.

Have an option to let the client give the server the encryption password and hence do server-side encryption. This would mean that network deltas with encryption can be done.

Think about having a 'friendly' way of doing restores, as I have known some people to complain about having to type things on the command line.

Hi!

It seems that burp is ignoring the "noopt" tag exported via DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS (it's still getting compiled with -O2 instead -O0).
nocheck and nostrip are fine.

Thank you!

Best regards,

Add the option to turn an existing hardlinked_archive (not 'current') into a non-hardlinked_archive, and vice versa. This could be useful for deleting backups out of the middle of a chain instead of just the oldest.

Add option to take a list of paths for restore.

Get EFS backup/restore working on Windows (FILE_ATTRIBUTE_ENCRYPTED, and special open/read/close functions).

As the title says.

Investigate Windows 'bare metal restore'.

Add localisation/gettext specifically to work around the Polish Windows XP "schtasks.exe Co_minutÄ" problem.

This is the line from burp's logrotate script:

Should be invoke-rc.d.

Add Bas van den Dikkenberg's patches for Debian.

Make SSL_shutdown() work properly.

In the test script, check whether the backup has finished before going on to the next step (rather than waiting 10 seconds and then possibly failing).

Do not compress manifests and logs when compression is turned off

Try to make backup_phase4_server more efficient. For example, a storage server using a CIFS mounted disk appears very low when I have a backup containing 1,500,000 small files with very few changes. (This may have been exacerbated by working dir recovery 'merge'. With 'resume', it may be fairly improved).

When you make clean logfiles en test files arn't being removed.

it is almost al files in test dir

Investigate HFS / resource forks and make support. I think this might need somebody to buy me a Mac.

Add the ability to specify things like includes/excludes on the server side.

Will probably work by downloading chunks of config to the client.

Hi again!

burp is wrongly installing /sbin/bedup and /sbin/burp
/sbin should contains only "binaries essential for booting, restoring,
recovering, and/or repairing the system in addition to the binaries in
/bin" (see the Filesystem Hierarchy Standard).

They should be installed under /usr/sbin

Thank you!

Best regards,
Nelson

Is probably a bit trickier than other tests, because it has to be different on different systems.

Make sure behaviour is sensible when a client runs out of storage directories. It is programmed to loop to the start, but it will currently overwrite existing files (see section that calls incr_dpth() in backup_phase2_server()).

Maybe look at the timer script regularly. If the time is now out of the defined range, interrupt the backup in such a way that it will pick up from where it left off the next time round.

Add localisation/gettext.

Hi!

Today while starting burp I saw that it didn't run.
On dmesg I saw this:

[330733.343833] burp[4128]: segfault at fffffffffffffff7 ip 00007fb1dce1e799 sp 00007fff40e26650 error 4 in libc-2.13.so[7fb1dcda4000+17d000] [330733.344172] burp[4130]: segfault at fffffffffffffff7 ip 00007fb1dce1e799 sp 00007fff40e26650 error 4 in libc-2.13.so[7fb1dcda4000+17d000] =====

Providing a -dbg package would help us in debugging such problems (and won´t force the users to recompile the package to enable debug symbols).

Thank you!

autoconf/config.log must be removed from source files for next build

Allow random backups to be deleted safely when hardlinked_archive is on.

When lots of clients are backing up, the live status monitor truncates information.

Investigate how to make massive files work better with librsync.

Because it didn't do the phase1 scan. Have the server send it the counters.

Make transfer_gzfile_in() and send_whole_file_gz check checksums.
