I use amanda as well but man what a learning curve. The RPMs are out there but I did not know what user and directories they compiled into the binary used. Now that I have a better idea about how th thing works I may try the binaries again. RPM sure is nice. I guess if I had the time I could build my own rpm for it. Oh well. So much to learn and so little time. I really do like amanda though. It performs all the tape management and tried to keep redundant copies of stuff and all I have to do is feed the drive the tape it asks for. Pretty good mailing list with some very helpful folks. Not as helpful as this list of course:) Bret Jeff Smelser wrote: > > I use amanda.
