there are various opensource/free s/w tools available which lend themselves to the task exceedingly well -- mondo/mindi, mkcdrec and mirrordir. each has their invidual strong points and relative weaknesses. IMO if u want a mult-CD spanning backup set u should look at mkcdrec. whereas if u have a second HDD available using mirrordir via a anacron/cron job is excellent. If u face any difficulty while setting up any of these, let me know... with guide u thru. cheers, --indra -- To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the body "unsubscribe ilug-cal" and an empty subject line.
