Does anyone see any issues with this? I'd recommend you template this into the current /sbin/e-smith/backup script and not make this an additional cron job. Basically the current script: dumps the mysql databases backs up the entire server hard drive You may wish to add: dumps the mysql databases archives the smb clients backs up the entire server hard drive > 4) Would a graphic interface be of any value?

A server manager page to launch on demand and select clients would be nice, but a good deal of work :) Regards, -- Darrell May DMC Netsourced.com http://netsourced.com http://myEZserver.com -- Please report bugs to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Please mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] (only) to discuss security issues Support for registered customers and partners to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Archives by mail and http://www.mail-archive.com/devinfo%40lists.e-smith.org
