Using tar with: tar -czpf ...  the incremtal function works right.
Using tar with: tar -cpf ...   the incremtal function dont work.
Without compressing tar always produce a full backup archive.

tar-version:  GNU tar 1.29 on Ubuntu Bionic Beaver 18.04.2

Making achives over network using Samba cifs

/etc/fstab:
//192.168.178.165/x    /home/asterix/carola  cifs auto,rw,users,username=asterix,password=leo,uid=asterix,gid=asterix  0 0

Now i am using the compression, but thereby the backuptime is much
longer.

Thank you for Ubuntu/Linux :-)
