What utilities had this problem? If you get more specific about the problem, we can explain more about how Bacula handles it. -- Dan Langille BSDCan - The Technical BSD Conference : http://www.bsdcan.org/ PGCon - The PostgreSQL Conference: http://www.pgcon.org/ - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
