I can't recommend any application because I finally moved to tar which I thought it was going to be the most reliable solution in the end :-), but Wikipedia has an extensible list of backup sofware that can give you some ideas: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_backup_software Greetings, -- Camaleón -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

areca backup folder to samba shared folder
Hi, I found that on my Debian amd64 laptop (have not tried 32-bit version yet) that I cannot set mounted samba shared folder as local folder. But this can be done on Windows 2003 Windows 7. Any workaround? Or maybe I had missed a thing or two? Thanks. -- Regards, Umarzuki Mochlis http://debmal.my -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?
