It's capable of seeing it over samba but because it's removable, this  
is not very suitable. I was actually hoping it could be accessed in  
the manner of sshfs. It is important that the Windows box releases the  
directory soon after stopping using it, without user intervention.

[flexbackup-help] Backup to a remote directory?

2010-05-22 Thread Phil Reynolds
In an attempt to make my backups more efficient I am hoping to get  
flexbackup to run natively on my partner's Windows box, but I want it  
to send its data to a directory on my Linux box that is not suitable  
for exporting with samba.

I note that flexbackup can handle situations where the tape drive is  
remote, but can it do the same when the backup is to a directory?
