There are several more conventional methods, but you might also want to take a look at the Coda filesystem: http://www.coda.cs.cmu.edu/ I've played with it a little and it's pretty neat, although I've never done anything serious with it. It's in the ports collection. > My current thinking is to create a second box as a hot spare. I don't think Coda can mirror an entire system, but if you want real-time mirroring of the data directories, it might be just what you need. > > Michael Grant - Bob To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
