I understand this, too. It's the syntax I don't get correct. >> /home/shared-data/wamu-2006.jgnash.xml >> Feb 8 2009 20100715-2200 The above is the backup file I want to restore. I want this to be copied to /home/shared-data/wamu-2006.jgnash.xml. So, is the syntax cp /media/hd0/backup/dirvish/server/a-home/home/shared-data/wamu-2006.jgnash.xml/201000715-2200 /home/shared-data/wamu-2006.jgnash.xml ? That did not work before. What is the fully qualified file name of a specific dirvish backed up file?
