In all but some unusual cases, use rsync. Most files on a computer don't change; so transferring only the changed ones is the sensible thing to do. Most of the Windows workstations I back up; take <10 minutes; and most of the time is spent just figuring out what files have changed. If those backups were done with tar, they would take .5-1.5hr in most cases, to transfer all the files. -- Carl Soderstrom Systems Administrator Real-Time Enterprises www.real-time.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
