Seems to be working for now. I've uploaded 2GB of files during the
first sync. Not sure how to test it. I tried
bbackupquery "compare -aqA" quit
which seemed to work, with one likely-moved file mentioned in the
Event Viewer. I cancelled that after a bit.
I then tried creating a Scheduled Task to do the same, but got these:
---
WARNING: Quick compare used -- file attributes are not checked.
Failed to open 'C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Documents': Access
is denied. (5)
WARNING: Exception thrown: CommonException(OSFileError) (C:\Documents
and Settings\All Users\Documents) at BackupQueries.cpp(1615)
---
Not sure why I don't have permissions when run as a Scheduled Task.

Per http://www.boxbackup.org/trac/wiki/CompileWithVisualC I'm
downloading Visual C++ 2010 Express, SlikSVN, and Perl now...
Thanks, Chris,
