Since neither really needs any day to day attention, I kind of like the fact that they don't know anything about each other and have no common point of failure. I'm just hoping I'll never have to restore from the amanda tapes again - it's been so long that I've almost forgotten how. > If anyone is interested in developing such a solution, please send me an email > (paddy at zmanda dot com).

I suppose an amanda method that could include a tar copy of some of the backuppc hosts into its run would be nice for system where you are using rsync and don't have the bandwidth to make a direct copy. But it might make more sense to try to glue backuppc's pooled archive into bacula if you want to combine tape and on-line backups. -- Les Mikesell [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
