Those are called directories, not folders. i want to backup a folder in SERVER A. are there any backup methods, that meets these two requirements? : 1) running from e.g.: a cronjob 2) when running, it just checks the folder in SERVER A and SERVER B. if a file/folder has been added/removed/ modified in the SERVER A's folder, then it copies/removes it/them to SERVER B's folder. Maybe cpdup can help here. Anyway, rsync would be a recommended choice. After installing them, you'll dinf documentation in man cpdup and man rsync, /usr/local/share/doc/rsync/ - those are well documented. -- Polytropon Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ... ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
