er... my system is backing up RIGHT NOW to a disk that isn't mounted! NSSBackup has created the directory and is cheerfully filling it with a new full backup. (Ubuntu 9.04)

Because the automount feature of Ubuntu creates a directory for a mounted drive in the form /media/<volume_name>, and removes it when the disk is unmounted, NSSBackup is going to create the 'last' directory specified every time, if I'm reading you correctly, Jean-Peer.

Comparisons being odious and all, Simple Backup does have this option...
