Per several requests, I've placed them on my website at: http://www.netcom.com/~kmself/Linux/Linux.html http://www.netcom.com/~kmself/Linux/FAQs/backups.html I'm wrangling with my conciense over licensing terms -- essentially I'd like them to be compatible with existing Debian docs, freely available, and persistantly so. I've indicated my current direction on the documents. If the backup FAQ is useful, I'd be more than happy for it to be used as part of a Debian FAQ on the subject. -- Karsten M.

I've searched... there seems to be some nice info there, but I'd appreciate if you (or someone else) would phrase it in a way suitable for the FAQ.

I wrote debbackup, a backup script, but have not uploaded it yet. If anyone wants to test it, they are welcome to. pgpUm0jvarkmp.pgp Description: PGP signature
Re: Bug#69197: inadequate backup instructions
Hi, There's a bug filed against the doc-debian package, including the Debian FAQ, about not having good backup instructions for users (admins). See http://bugs.debian.org/69197 for details. Can someone please suggest an answer to such a question so I can include it in the FAQ? `apt-cache search backup' doesn't quite cut it :) -- Digital Electronic Being Intended for Assassination and Nullification
