When I used tape for backup, I used Amanda, and it did what it was supposed to do very well, with tape contents indexes, and a media rotation pattern. However, in a non-tape environment with only a few machines, I found it excessively complex, and was happy to abandon it in favour of some scripts around rsync to a NAS, which is much easier to administer. -- Tony van der Hoff | mailto:t...@vanderhoff.org Buckinghamshire, England | -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
