Re: Tarsnap GUI shows 0 data archived or backed up



Hi,

I believe too much feedback in my last mail might have been off-putting
and judgemental (and kinda unsolicited advice) :-) Or not.

Anyway, this is something I tried to figure out on my own and but couldn't
and still looking for help. So could someone please help me about it
(quoted from previous mail):

Or should I ask it in a separate thread? Or rather shoot a mail to Tarsnap
support? (But I see Graham is CCed in this mail thread).

Thanks.
