Hi,
I have a DNS server running in BIND. I executed to take backup of
configuration and zone files as below and its working fine.
# /bin/tar -pczvf named.tar.gz /etc/ /var/named
--exclude='/var/named/chroot/var/named/data' --exclude='/var/named/chroot/proc'
But what happens is when i executed below command to restore the backup on the
freshly OS installed machine under /root directory, command is excecuted
successfully but what i found that there is a directory called /etc and /var
created under /root as below
drwxr-xr-x 91 root root 12288 Jun 18 07:50 etc
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 7390955 Jun 19 05:04 named.tar.gz
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 Jun 19 15:54 var
You should learn to how to use tar correctly.
maybe 'man tar' or 'tar --help' give you the info.
The authors of tar were partial to info over man. Try:
info tar
There is alot more information in the info pages than man pages for tar.
Plus the original poster needs to learn how to use the command line a
lot better.
