I need some help out there. I ended up using filevault to encrypt my home folder only on my server. The downside of this is that I cannot use time machine to back up the admin folder contents. I'm trying to find a way around this. I need advice on one of a few options if it is possible:

1) find a way to force time machine to back up the individual files, not the entire account image.
2) find software that mirrors the restore capability of time machine. I like clicking on the file and seeing the various backups from previous snapshots. I'm using CCC with safety net and that is very difficult to find files to restore older than the last backup.
3) Find a way to auto login the server while the user folder still being encrypted (likely impossible).
4) Find a user account encryption software other than filevault

I appreciate any help in advance.
