Has anybody automated the access to older versions of files?

we have done it in a web interface, but that samba idea is really cool.


It would be cool to have samba shares which use the "precommand" feature
that would run the rdiff-backup --list-increments command, then create
subdirectories for each increment along with a short script in each
directory to extract the contents of that increment. Each time a user
accesses a subdirectory of this samba share, the precommand would
execute, extracting only one level of files & directories.


I might try it today. see what i come up with.
should just be a simple shell script that calls rdiff-backup with the
right variables I spose... might need a samba vfs layer though.
