using the Linux binary uner Linux emulation. The binary executes fine, and
the OpenBSD box and Legato server are communicating perfectly. Backups work,
but with one major problem:
Legato backs up files by crawling the file system, starting at / going into
each directory and backing up files as it finds them. The problem that I'm
having is that, under linux emulation, the emulator first checks to see if a
file/directory exists under /emul/linux. So, when the backup software tries
to back up /var, it ends up backing up /emul/linux/var, and my actual /var
never gets backed up. I have the same problem in /usr, and so on.
Is there some method/way around this problem? How can I make my Linux binary
back up the actual /var rather than /emul/linux/var?
Thanks for the help.
