Not too long ago, I had some questions about recovering files, most
importantly, rebuilding a crashed machine using backups.
The most straightforward method appears to be to reinstall the operating
system, use native utilities (tar or dump) or install amanda utilities, then
restore the files.
If I'm running amrecover onto a newly installed operating system, will it
overwrite existing files? Will my archived /etc/inetd.conf overwrite the
existing /etc/inetd.conf?
Also, can someone give me an example of using tar or dump to restore a file
off of a remote machine?
Thanks,
Ivan
