The reason why syncing is not a backup, is because if you delete a file, and the deletion gets replicated, you cannot recover the deleted file. Ability to recover deleted files (or old versions of files that have been overwritten) is a pretty important characteristic of a backup system. _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list Discuss@blu.org http://lists.blu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
