I am not familiar enough with the architecture of BackupPC to know for certain, but I *believe* full backups do checksum comparisons of the files; so if the old file is corrupt, the new one will be backed up. this is not necessarily true of incrementals. This is also assuming you're using rsync to transfer your data. As for other components of the system and how they handle this, you'd have to rely on Craig or other code-hackers. -- Carl Soderstrom Systems Administrator Real-Time Enterprises www.real-time.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
