No, it is a long-standing problem. Probably the best solution is to move as much as you can to a Linux server running samba where the files are not automatically locked on the Linux side. Even with most commercial products you have to pay extra for open file agents. Bacula is supposes to have one and I thoght someone was working on one for backuppc but haven't heard much about it. -- Les Mikesell [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is Sponsored by the Better Software Conference & EXPO September 19-22, 2005 * San Francisco, CA * Development Lifecycle Practices Agile & Plan-Driven Development * Managing Projects & Teams * Testing & QA Security * Process Improvement & Measurement * http://www.sqe.com/bsce5sf _______________________________________________ BackupPC-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/backuppc-users http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/
