I use Cygwin and a Perl script that uses ntbackup to backup C:\Documents and Settings to a second hard drive. I then run another Perl script on my Debian 3.1 backup server which copies out the backup(s) using rsync over ssh (Cygwin is running sshd). When I ran my machines 24x7, everything was done by cron. Now I run the scripts manually each night before I shut everything down. HTH, David -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
