Hello @all,

after the last update und reboot my server wasn't reachable anymore. I can login manually but e.g. network is unreachable and I can't login to console, because there is no more such file in /sbin/e-smith
But I have backups made daily with backupPc. They are in /opt/backuppc/files/pc/localhost/55 (or 54,53 and so on).
I would like to restore the whole sbin dir. I can start the backuppc service but don't know the correct syntax of the restore-process for one sub-dir.
I read the http://sme.firewall-services.com/spip.php?article45 articles but I still don't know howto start.

Any Help or Suggestions?

please  :-(
thx
ganther
