Show what files will be backed up:

echo "estimate job=client.vanutsteen.nl listing client=client.vanutsteen.nl fileset=Server" | bconsole

List all files backuped in a particular job:

echo "list files jobid=12"  | bconsole

echo ".dump" | sqlite3 old.db | sqlite3 new.db

Explanation: pipe “.dump” to sqlite and use that output (the dump itself) to fill the new.db database.
