I think backup methods are determined by your level of paranoia. For myself, I use a dedicated backup hard drive and rsnapshot http://rsnapshot.sourceforge.net for doing the grunt work. It could easily be adapted to an offsite drive via the network, I used to do a laborious nightly tar backup but rsnapshot is so much faster and less work for the host box that it is no contest. -- Jack Bowling Prince George, BC mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
