You could modify the code to use the date in the file name. > Is there a way to launch an archive on a regular basis where the jobs > are recorded and managed within BackupPC? The proper way to do it is to create an archive request file (see the CGI code to see how to do that) and to use BackupPC_serverMesg to send an archive request (again, see the CGI code to see how to do that) to BackupPC. BackupPC will then run the archive and keep the log information about what it did. Craig ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
