Question #57582 on NSsbackup changed:
https://answers.edge.launchpad.net/nssbackup/+question/57582

    Status: Needs information => Open

mfpost@xxxxxxxxx gave more information on the question:
1.  I am using version 0.2-0 RC2
2.  I installed via PPA
3.  From the menu "System>Administration>NSsbackup Configuration Gui"  It asks for my password when I open it so I assume it is in super-user mode.
4.  Yes I can access and create files both as a user and as super-user
5.   I set it to the default folder (/var/backup) but it never created any files there
6.  I tried backing up one file to the network share and it failed.
     Goes to sleep means if I run ps and lookup the process ID of the backup process it almost always shows an "S" or "SN".  I believe that mean the process is sleeping.
7.  No I do not get any messages right now.  When I first installed it and tried I would get a message about the backup starting.  Now I don't get that.
8.  Here is the config it isn't much and I have it set to debug.
NSSBackup 'Default Profile' Logger

A little more info.  Last week I was trying sbackup and having similar
problem.  I read about NSsbackup and decided to give it a try.  I have
not gotten a finished backup from either.  My gut feeling is that my
problem is not so much a bug as it is a configuration issue or maybe a
setup issue.

Thanks for the help
