Greetings,

I am attempting to set up flexbackup on my Mac OS X 10.2.8 system, using the 'copy' method to simply copy all backup files to another hard drive. The cpio command seems to fail as follows:

--------
| cd "/Users" && find . -depth -xdev ! -type s -print0 | cpio -o -0 -H newc
| -v -C 10240 | (mkdir -p /Volumes/Backup/Users.0.200310120841 ; cd
| /Volumes/Backup/Users.0.200310120841 ; cpio -i -m -d -C 10240)
|------------------------------------------------------------
cpio: illegal option -- 0
usage: cpio -o [-aABcLvVzZ] [-C bytes] [-H format] [-O archive]
[-F archive] < name-list [> archive]
cpio -i [-bBcdfmnrsStuvVzZ6] [-C bytes] [-E file] [-H format]
[-I archive] [-F archive] [pattern...] [< archive]
cpio -p [-adlLmuvV] destination-directory < name-list


ATTENTION! cpio archive volume change required.
---------

Just wondering what the "-0" option is trying to accomplish and what I might be able to substitute so that it works with my version of cpio. I don't know for sure what version of cpio I have, but according to the manpage, it is from BSD, February 1997, by Keith Mueller at UCSD. That would make sense since Mac OS X is based on FreeBSD.

Thanks,

Peter
