The canonical question regarding this sort of request is... why? It's *much* easier to let amanda set the schedule, although it does require you to wrap your head around how amanda does that. Amanda does a very good job of scheduling backups. Unless you have a very compelling reason, it's best to let it do it's job. -- Joshua Baker-LePain Department of Biomedical Engineering Duke University
