Well, I just signed up with Lunar Pages (with no grief as compared to what Whil is running into as I am not hosting anything serious). Kevin, thank you for the recommendation. As solid as I feel my disk-to-disk backups are, and my monthly rotation between two full sets of HHD units off-site, I like this remote storage approach with my most critical files. Plenty of room to park them, and if I begin to run out of room I will see about upgrading the LP account, or just get another $7/month account. I am very surprised at their generous alowance with disk space and monthly bandwidth use. BTW, SyncBack does support not only disk-to-disk, but disk-to-ftp (with or without Zip compression) as well. I guess I will need to learn how to configure that next. Very nice backup software, with more than fair license fees, and supports VSS (virtual shadow-copy service) to boot (must have XP or 2003 Server, local disk, NTFS format, VSS service on).
