Basically you just need to know the profile "number" (1 is the default profile AFAIR) to start a backup

backintime --profile-id 1 backup

Thanks. So something as simple as this would script my three profiles (which are working via the GUI): mount /NAS-filesystem #defined in /etc/fstab for profile in "Main profile" boot home do backintime --profile $profile backup done umount /NAS-filesystem Right? BTW, can the name "Main profile" (the first one created by the GUI) be changed to be more meaningful? In my case, to "root"
