Otherwise tar, ufsdump or rsync the approriate partitions to somewhere safe. Rsync will allow you to restore the quickest since it will only copy over changed files, but it's also not standard on Solaris, so if you need to recover from a boot cd, the whole process will be a lot trickier. -f http://www.blackant.net/ _______________________________________________ Solaris-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.filibeto.org/mailman/listinfo/solaris-users
