I missed that detail as I came into the thread late.

But at the end of the day, sbackup is just a Python script that gets run
by anacron (usually). There is a GUI to configure it, but if you can
hack the config file you might be in business.

I'm kind of thinking out loud here and I might be totally off the mark
but there may be some mileage here.

Regards,
Tony.
