Ok, I'm trying to do a simple tar+gzip backup for my file system. I can do this no problem. The backup is a little less than 2Gb. What I would like to do is chop this up into 650Mb pieces that I can ftp over to a server with a cd-r and burn them. Does anyone know a good utility that can do this, or another method that will accomplish what I'm trying to do?
split -b (see the man page) - or I think tar has an option to define both the 'size of the tape' (in 1k blocks) and a script to run 'between tape changes' - so you should be able to sort something out with that...
