Amanda rocks. Especially if you're talking about backing stuff up to tape from multiple machines. For simpler stuff, dump or tar works fine. > Secondly how do I stop in.pop3d logging every access /var/log/messages? Ignore it? If you are scanning your logs for interesting activity, I would recommend using logcheck. It'll ignore all the dross and just present you with the interesting bits. Actually, most of what it presents me is also dross (I'm fed up seeing people scanning for vulnerable copies of ssh for example). -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.wossname.org.uk/~mathie/ -------------------------------------------------------------------- http://www.lug.org.uk http://www.linuxportal.co.uk http://www.linuxjob.co.uk http://www.linuxshop.co.uk --------------------------------------------------------------------
