Hello, How do I back up our linux server (Debian slink) using a HP SureStore DAT8 tape drive. The Dat Drive is an external box attached to the linux server via an adapted scsi card.
This is probably a simple questiong to answer, but I cant find the right info. Which packages should I use to backup the server, so that it can be left to automatically backup selected files overnight. It would be nice to also access a winNT machine to backup about 20Meg of files, from the same linux server. Any ideas how this could be done? I had thought about NFS, but was told by our windoze 'expert' that winNT did not have NFS by default !!! Any advice would be helpful, as I cant find any HOWTO's that talk about these issues. Thanks, John.
