What I did this afternoon was remove the /export directory and did a full backup. It took about 45 minutes for approximately 20 GB of files. I reenabled the server and added each directory in /export to the config file. I will see what happens tomorrow when it runs tonight. -- Jeremy Mann jer...@biochem.uthscsa.edu University of Texas Health Science Center Bioinformatics Core Facility http://www.bioinformatics.uthscsa.edu Phone: (210) 567-2672 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Let Crystal Reports handle the reporting - Free Crystal Reports 2008 30-Day trial.
