I'm fairly sure that it will exit at startup if it can't make a link under the pc and cpool directories. That's a common problem when people try to change the storage location, but it should also fail on missing media. Also, it's easy to add other tests in the startup script. > I can see myself getting a dedicated backup server in the future. Though > part of me feels that this is overkill for a home network. One approach is to buy yourself a spiffy new computer to work on and relegate the old box to backup and other network services. -- Les Mikesell lesmikes...@gmail.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Register Now for Creativity and Technology (CaT), June 3rd, NYC.
