I didn't remember those log files. Looking at them showed me a bunch of errors with the /sys filesystem. That isn't a directory that I'm all that worried about so I excluded it also. Re-ran a full backup on a test system and now it gets everything. The errors had to do with the fact that the files were constantly changing and tar wasn't happy about that. I suppose that this is a bug when using tar on an RHEL4 system. Thanks for jogging my memory with the log files. All is well now. -- C Lance Moxley http://moxley.champaign.il.us:61821/ ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by xPML, a groundbreaking scripting language that extends applications into web and mobile media.
