I think "simplest" is subjective to individual preferences. But for me, I think the simplest method of backups is by using rsync. If you have the space for it, rsync will mirror entire directories from one dir on your local computer to another dir either on your local computer or a remote computer. There is also tar. With tar, you can use a snapshot file to backup only newer files in an incremental fashion. Really, backups strategy is going to be dependent on what methods you find fits bets with what you have available in terms of disk space and such. -- ---Bryen--- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
