https://answers.launchpad.net/duplicity/+question/264557

    Status: Answered => Open

Domoradov Alex is still having a problem:
> how about backing up to a local file:// repository
at the moment I'm doing exactly what you have said

On the web server

# duplicity --no-encryption --volsize 1024 incr /data/vhosts/
file:///backup/vhosts/


On the backup server

# /usr/bin/rsync -rza --stats --rsh='ssh -p2222 -c arcfour' --inplace
root@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx:/backup/vhosts/ /data/backup/148.251.xxx.xxx/vhosts/

> verifying that and keeping it in sync with remote?
could you explain more detailed how I can verify a single incremental
backup?
