Comment:

 Thanks for the suggestion! I've added this to LifePreserver in 8-Stable
 for 8.1 down the road:

 http://trac.pcbsd.org/changeset/6496

 This update will let you change the remote dir you backup into (I.E. life-
 preserver/), however this is still relative to the users homedir on the
 remote system.

 A good way to juggle around where the backup ultimately ends up is by
 creating a sym-link in the users homedir for "life-preserver/ ->
 /mirror/user/backup" or something of the like. Additionally if you setup a
 user on the remote side, you can always change its homedir to somewhere
 within your mirror disk.

 I.E

 /tankmirror/backupuser/
