myhost Root / myhost Var /var Is DLE Var a separate file system or a subdir? Need it, should it, be excluded from the Root DLE? Are there instances where Var is a subdir, not a file system, but I want it also backed up under the Root DLE? If it is automatically excluded and is a mount point, does that mean the directory /var is not recreated when I restore Root? If not, then there is no place to mount the restored Var. Directory "var" is not a part of the var file system. -- Jon H. LaBadie [EMAIL PROTECTED] JG Computing 4455 Province Line Road (609) 252-0159 Princeton, NJ 08540-4322 (609) 683-7220 (fax)
