1. Read the threads on using shadow mounts to backup open files like pst's. If you want, you can use the script that I posted to the group for automagically setting up and taking down shadow mounts 2. I also wrote a script, BackupPC_deleteFile for selectively deleting one or more files from one or more backups. One could presumably automate it to regularly delete past pst files using a simple cron job or equivalent. Again check out the archives. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Enter the BlackBerry Developer Challenge This is your chance to win up to $100,000 in prizes!
