No, mt is just a tool to verify and test the drive normally. To backup, there are many scripts that are floating around to do backups that use, tar, cpio, dump etc. Then there are some apps. that are free to use, Amanda, etc. or $ apps such as Bru, Arkeia etc, etc. You might want to to a search on: http://www.google.com/search http://freshmeat.net For some apps, BTW, I don't recommend Amanda for a newbie, but is a very good app once you have some time under your belt. -- Ray Curtis Unix Programmer/Consultant Curtis Consulting mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.ccux.com _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
