I don't think you can bacvkup important system files while the system is up... and without them, you only need to backup documents, as the system without system files such as the registry wouldn't be much usable. -- Lapo 'Raist' Luchini [EMAIL PROTECTED] (PGP X.509 keys available) http://www.lapo.it (ICQ UIN: 529796) -- To unsubscribe or change options: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.tuxedo.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
Re: Restore rsync'ed win2000?
So... if i mounted the c:\ of a windows 2000 professional (server) using samba and rsynced it... excluding only the pagefile.sys, because that has been the only non-syncable file i've come by yet, besides maybe hidden files... which, damn, i should just to see if they are being synced... i would also not be getting the registry? Do you happen to know of any other 'important system files thought probably are not being synced?

Do you happen to know of any other 'important system files thought probably are not being synced? Registry is actualyl a hidden file under C:\WINNT\.. something like... USER00.DAT if I'm not wrong. But it and much others aer always write open by the OS so you can't get a read permission on them unless you shutdown the OS. -- Lapo 'Raist' Luchini [EMAIL PROTECTED] (PGP X.509 keys available) http://www.lapo.it (ICQ UIN: 529796) -- To unsubscribe or change options: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.tuxedo.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
