It should work. For such as that, rsync is mighty handy. Run it right after amanda is done for the last time on that box and you should have everything copied. Don't forget to copy over the source codes tree for amanda too, that way you'll have a ready-made re-install in case things act a little foobar. -- Cheers, Gene AMD K6-III@500mhz 320M Athlon1600XP@1400mhz 512M 98.85+% setiathome rank, not too shabby for a hillbilly
