I'm curious why BackupPC's archive method wouldn't work for you. I use it to burn DVDs of my backup sets on a periodic basis. Couldn't you do that and store the DVDs offsite? They aren't in "BackupPC" format, they are written as compressed tar files, which can be read on just about any out-of-the-box Unix or Windows system without any special tools or anything specific to BackupPC. -- Steve Willoughby | Using billion-dollar satellites [EMAIL PROTECTED] | to hunt for Tupperware. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
