Martin, I have a Dropbox account - www.dropbox.com - with a free space of 2GB for backup. Virtual Box has a shared folder feature and I do the backup of ~/.hkclasses and /var/lib/mysql knoda files in that folder. So, I can access knoda everywhere always within a virtual slackware machine running old knoda that I installed in desktop and laptop computers. Regards Gilcio Amaral
