I actually do this nightly with several remote servers. We use rsync over ssh. Basically we use the following command run from the local to us machine, but it will work from either direction. rsync -avz --delete --exclude-from=/etc/cron.daily/rsync_exclude -e ssh remote.server.com:/ /var/backups/remote.server.com /etc/cron.daily/rsync_exclude contains: /proc /mnt There is only 1 trick to get this to run automated. Exchange root user ssh keys so you don't need a password to login from one machine to the other. We can regenerate the entire machine file structure in about 20 minutes if we need to here. Each of our remote machines has about 600Mb file system. -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
