Ok, I'm all confused now! When I untarred the tarball, there where only 
6 files;

rdiff-backup
CHANGELOG
COPYING
README
FAQ.html
rdiff-backup.1

I understand what each of these files are, however, 'locate rdiff' now 
shows '/usr/bin/rdiff'. Where did that file come from? (ok I assume it 
was written by rdiff-backup) Why doesn't it get put in the same dir as 
rdiff-backup?

I copied it to /usr/sbin/rdiff, will that be sufficient or does it have 
to be in '/usr/bin'?

On the system we want to be using rdiff-backup to backup the HD, we have 
a policy to put all executeable files in '/lcl/bin' (that system, and 
policy, was setup and is maintained by a gentleman that has used unix 
systems for many years). Will that work?

Forgive my newbie ignorance, please.
