How can I make Reliable BackUps ?
--------------------------

As Home PC User, [ stand alone 'puter] my Ditto External 2 GB
Parport Non-SCSI tape is up and running.

KDE's  "KDAT" Tape BackUp Tool is &%$@# NOT reliable when used
with Ditto ~ Using "Restore" , that program restores files OTHER
than those selected !!

What program should I use, and what is reasonable back up plan ?

{{ another adventure with Kdat ~ in a general restore, certain
/lib or /usr files were restores that pulled the rug from under
the feet of Xwindows causing total crash of Xwindows and of the
Kdat program }}

Which directories must one AVOID restoring, to preserve function
of Tape Drive ??

Should I avoid doing backups from Xwindows ~ is it best to use FTAPE-Tools
from console [ no xwindows] ??

Thanks
