I believe that, on some variants, tar refuses to untar absolute paths when you're root; it strips the leading / for you. No time to look it up, though, so YMMV. As for the original question, I'd suggest http://www.backupcentral.com/components/com_mambowiki/index.php/Rsync_snapshots as a possible line of exploration. -Luke _______________________________________________ bblisa mailing list [email protected] http://www.bblisa.org/mailman/listinfo/bblisa
