[volunteers] Backups Update

Long long time ago, in a galaxy far far away....

Yoda had a blissful internet setup with a cable modem, firewall and a 
switch. Then some bad people, whose name I forget, show up and mess up 
his VOIP call quality and he is forced to put a Vonage ATA before the 
firewall. Well, that plays havoc with outside access to his network and 
he cannot perform "root" backups from an outside machine.

Then Yoda searches and finds the force, I think it is Ginseng, and 
resolves to one day, not too long from now in a galaxy near us, to call 
Vonage and resolve this issue using port forwarding techniques, instead 
of light sabers.

Hopefully we won't have to wait 25 years to see that full backups have 
started.

p.s. Sorry, this is the best I can do with that analogy
