AFAIK, nssbackup checks for existance of the destination directory, and if it does not exist does not perform the backup. One alternative would be to put an autorun script on your USB stick that launches (ns)sbackup when inserted (depends on your OS exactly how that works). -- Groetjes, Anton _____________ _______________________________________________________ | | | | _ _ ___,| K.
