I tried to Tar to dat from a smbmount and use the following, tar cvf /dev/nst0 *.*
It stopped after about 400mb Tried it again and it did the same, so i tar'd to the hd such as tar cvf /usr/Cad12/tartest *.* and it did the same thing, stopped at about 400mb. It tar'd one folder and the loose files in the root of where tar was run from. So then i did tar cvf /dev/nst0 . and that did the trick The question is, *.* implies everything, and '.' implies the current directory. Anybody know why it only did one folder and its contents and loose files in the root. The total was about 26 folders and 4.4Gb. Kenny baby :o)
