Hi Guys,

I'm still fiddling around with duplicity, trying to create incremental
backups:

duplicity incremental /var/test ftp://address@hidden//


This fails, although the manual says:
 duplicity incremental [options] source_directory target_url

I also tried tweaking around with some options which work fine when
creating a full backup.


I'm specifying the incremental (and tried --incremental and --inc and
inc) command because duplicity otherwise creates a full backup (which is
not funny when you're backing up 30 gigs of data).



Another small question: Where does duplicity put the temporary files? I
don't mind duplicity using some space, but I'm running multiple
instances of duplicity possibly (!) at once.

What am I actually doing wrong?


Cheers,

Boudewijn Ector
