Having been spoilt by firebird-backup with cron on Linux, I've not been keeping up with the windows options, and what I was running now just fails to even start ...
So I started with a search on firebirdsql.org ... why the f**k do we have to have pigging google advertising and CRAP search results? Firebird was doing a bloody good job itself in the past !!!! I can't even point my customers at it as it stands ... we don't have access to google enabled on public services intranets ... Anyway I finally navigated through to ibphoenix and found where the tools list had moved to, but it would seem that we have lost a number of packages, and even the ones left are a little outdated? I have a later FIBS, and that is the one that refuses to work on the latest 'version' of XP. Is it time to port the linux cron job to windows scheduler? I just need a simple way of keeping the last few nightly backups and mirror them to a second machine. AH - the trick with FIBS2.0.2 would seem to be that you have to have the 'guest' account enabled. I'd forgot to switch that on anyway but once I enabled it for file transfer - FIBS started to work as well ... -- Lester Caine - G8HFL ----------------------------- Contact - http://lsces.co.uk/wiki/?page=contact L.S.Caine Electronic Services - http://lsces.co.uk EnquirySolve - http://enquirysolve.com/ Model Engineers Digital Workshop - http://medw.co.uk// Firebird - http://www.firebirdsql.org/index.php
