Presuming that you are using a Debian-like installation, try this command: /usr/share/backuppc/bin/BackupPC_tarCreate -h <your.host.name> -n -1 -s <sharename> /path/to/your/files all on one line of course. For help with what the options mean, just run: /usr/share/backuppc/bin/BackupPC_tarCreate (i.e. with no arguments after the command itself) Note that you need to be running as the 'backuppc' user to do this. So I log in as an ordinary user, then do 'sudo -' to become root, then 'su - backuppc'. -- Carl Soderstrom Systems Administrator Real-Time Enterprises www.real-time.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Attend Shape: An AT&T Tech Expo July 15-16.
