Re: CCC on network?
I'd like to use CCC to backup drives over a network. Or do I need a different application. I want to do some backups on my drives that are connected to machines via Ethernet I've never tried using CCC for daily backup. For daily backup I use ChronoSync to backup our network. It's very versatile and only $40. I've used it for years and all of the upgrades are free.

Geno Well maybe if you only sync then you get a bad backup?? CCC will tell you if the copy will be bootable. I think that's the way it works.

JOHN CARMONNE Yorba Linda USA From TiBook 800 I just looked at the CCC web site, seem they offer a full version of the program for free now. IIRC the last time I used ccc there were features not included in the free version. You said you wanted to backup over a network so I was thinking files not boot drive. But the ccc web site has a help desk and the web site says you can use it over a network.

Well I think I'll tackle the disk image save over my Ethernet to start with I hope it's as clean as CCC on a local drive.

CCC on network?
Hi All I'd like to use CCC to backup drives over a network. Is there a way to do it? Or do I need a different application. I have RsyncX and I can use it to do copy folders and such. It has a scheduling option but it's too difficult for me to setup so far. I really would like to use CCC because it's such an easy and steady application to schedule, but it seems it only will work on drives connected to the same machine.

I want to do some backups on my drives that are connected to machines via Ethernet I use to backup from my Digital Audio Dual 533 over my home network, to my Quicksilver Dual 1GHz, on the same network, with a USB/FW External Harddrive attached to the QS. I would backup to the external drive ... not the internal one with the OS X on it ... There's a section on how to do it in the CCC documentation: CCC 3.3.2 Carbon Copy Cloner Help I want to backup my important data to another Macintosh on my network Learn more about backing up your data to another Macintosh over a network IIRC, you have to be careful how you name the partitions, and make sure you spell their names correctly as Targets. I now choose to move my external drive from machine to machine, as it seems safer to CCC locally, and not over a network. Network backup works though, once you've set things up with the Authentication Credentials and such. Good luck. -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
