Like I said in another post, I don't know a lot about Linux...just > tryign to learn. You didn't say what version of BackupPC and File::RsyncP you were using. If BackupPC is < 3.0.0 or File::RsyncP < 0.68 then you should replace --devices with -D in $Conf{RsyncArgs} and $Conf{RsyncRestoreArgs} Craig ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
