Description

When doing a manual backup, there is a check box for:
"Do not overwrite previous backups for this hostname"
But with or without checking the box the Restore tab still lists all config backups - both manual ones and automatic ones from config changing at the webGUI.
If this is an old feature that is no longer implemented at the server end, then remove the check box.
Otherwise, make it do whatever it was supposed to do, and put some information about what it will do (e.g. it might delete ALL previous backups). And I suggest it should be checked by default (or reverse the wording and have it unchecked by default).

yeah that's a legacy piece that doesn't do anything useful at the moment. I removed the checkbox for now. One of the first things we're doing post-2.2 release is some improvements with ACB in general. I'll get a feature along those lines back in at that time, probably to allow marking specific backups as "do not overwrite" so the automatic backups only take up whatever the remaining number of backups is for the system.

Yep - gone from the GUI. That's the easy way to fix everything :)
