Kind of. "-set all", >1 set, and level 0 all together are a special case that trigger the tape change prompt. I used to use it in that fashion when it was originally designed. You're right that it should be turn-off-able but isn't. noted... For now if you don't want to edit, you could either: - Put the directories you want on one tape together into just one set rather than multiple ones - Chain the sets like this: flexbackup -newtape ; \ flexbackup -set <set1> -norewind -noerase ; \ flexbackup -set <set2> -norewind -noerase ; \ flexbackup -set <setn> -noerase -- Edwin Huffstutler [EMAIL PROTECTED] GnuPG Key ID: AE782DC9 ------------------------------------------------------- The SF.Net email is sponsored by EclipseCon 2004 Premiere Conference on Open Tools Development and Integration See the breadth of Eclipse activity.
