Sorry for not responding earlier. My system crashed and i had to restore from backups. I did not really understand this. Are you saying there is a limit on the number of files i can tar gz? I also make backups of my emails and there can be as much as a million files, pherhaps more because of the mbox style(i think) of holding mails. > > Check out this: http://bcr2.uwaterloo.ca/~brecht/servers/openfiles.html > > > > ================================================================= > To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with > the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command > echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- Regards, Tzahi. -- Tzahi Fadida Blog: http://tzahi.blogsite.org | Home Site: http://tzahi.webhop.info WARNING TO SPAMMERS: see at http://members.lycos.co.uk/my2nis/spamwarning.html ================================================================To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
