[Box Backup] very early alpha!

[Nick Knight]

The only difference I have in my file is for all of the files I have a =
complete location for the file - so c:\box\keyfile etc

No reason for the name change - I probably will change it to Ben's =
correct name when I get it fully working!

1. your alpha zip is missing Visual C runtime library MSVCP71.DLL. Can =
be
downloaded from =
http://www.dll-files.com/dllindex/dll-files.shtml?msvcp71,
if somebody else needs it.

2. bbackupd is crashing on start for me (XP Pro, SP2):

E:\bbtest>bbackupd.exe -c bbackupd.conf
No random device -- additional seeding of random number generator not
performed.

3. Do you have a sample bbackupd.conf file? I'm mostly interested in =
path
and filename semantics.

4. boxquery.exe logs into the store, but dies on list. Usage works, =
though.

E:\bbtest>boxquery.exe -c bbackupd.conf

5. Just curious: any reason why you changed the query tool name from
bbackupquery to boxquery ?

Best regards, Mitja
