If the NAS is linux based, it might support the unix CIFS extensions, but I don't have any experience with that. I'd recommend adding local drives to the box running backuppc even if they have to be external. If you like to live on the bleeding edge, there is a new alpha version at: http://sourceforge.net/projects/backuppc/files/backuppc-beta/4.0.0alpha3/ that has a new storage scheme that does not use hardlinks. Not sure if it is ready for prime time, though. -- Les Mikesell lesmikes...@gmail.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ CenturyLink Cloud: The Leader in Enterprise Cloud Services.
