Better yet, there are quite a few backup utilities that do this type of thing for you automatically. I use afbackup and like it very much, although it's a client/server system so a bit tough to set up. GNU Tar can do this automatically as well using its "--incremental" argument. I'm sure there are at least a couple more available pre-packaged as *.deb files that I'm missing. Go to http://www.debian.org/distrib/packages and search for "backup" in frozen or stable. Gary
