Moving to SME 8.x contribs where it is more appropriate.
Be careful whose advice you buy, but be patient with those who supply it. Advice is a form of nostalgia, dispensing it is a way of fishing the past from the disposal, wiping it off, painting over the ugly parts and recycling it for more than its worth ~ Baz Luhrmann - Everybody's Free (To Wear Sunscreen)

Iafter some reading and failed attempts I contacted Daniel and he got back to me very quickly.
Here is a summary of what's required to install BackupPC on sme8.0...
Quote
Configure EPEL for SME8, as explained here: http://wiki.contribs.org/Epel
Configure sme7contribs repo as explained here: http://wiki.contribs.org/SME8.0_Contribs_QA#Setup

Install BackupPC and it's dependancies:
Code: [Select]
yum --enablerepo=epel install BackupPC
Install smeserver-BackupPC:
Code: [Select]
yum --enablerepo=sme7contribs install smeserver-BackupPC

You may have to expand the sudoers template:
Code: [Select]
expand-template /etc/sudoers
This has worked perfectly for me on 3 servers now.  Please remember that this just additional information to be read in conjunction with the wiki howto.

Thanks, Daniel,
