I need to find a method of backing up all files since a specific day. I tried using the following: tar cv `find / -newer /tmp/datefile` However, the tar command complains that the argument list is to long. I would ike to use either dump, tar or, cpio to create the backup, since I may need to take it to another system. It appears that I could use dump, but I would have to configure the dumpdates files to control the reference date. Does anyone have a suggestion on how to easily perform such a backup? -- | Bryan Swann ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) 803/566-0086 803/554-0015 (Fax) | Eagan McAllister Associates, Inc. | | "Everything must be working perfectly, cause I don't smell any smoke" -- PLEASE read the Red Hat FAQ, Tips, Errata and the MAILING LIST ARCHIVES! http://www.redhat.com/RedHat-FAQ /RedHat-Errata /RedHat-Tips /mailing-lists To unsubscribe: mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe" as the Subject.
