The only thing I can think of is that you are installing BackupPC in the same place you unpacked BackupPC-2.1.2.tgz. configure.pl unlinks the destination of the copy if it already exists. That's the only place it does an unlink(). Craig ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more? Need to support web services, security?
