It's capable of seeing it over samba but because it's removable, this is not very suitable. I was actually hoping it could be accessed in the manner of sshfs. It is important that the Windows box releases the directory soon after stopping using it, without user intervention. -- Phil Reynolds mail: phil-flexbac...@tinsleyviaduct.com Web: http://www.tinsleyviaduct.com/phil/ Waltham 66, Emley Moor 69, Droitwich 79, Windows 95 This message was sent using IMP, the Internet Messaging Program. -- ___ flexbackup-help mailing list flexbackup-help@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/flexbackup-help

What's the format of your external directory? How is windows seeing that directory?

[flexbackup-help] Backup to a remote directory?
In an attempt to make my backups more efficient I am hoping to get flexbackup to run natively on my partner's Windows box, but I want it to send its data to a directory on my Linux box that is not suitable for exporting with samba. I note that flexbackup can handle situations where the tape drive is remote, but can it do the same when the backup is to a directory? -- Phil Reynolds mail: phil-flexbac...@tinsleyviaduct.com Web: http://www.tinsleyviaduct.com/phil/ Waltham 66, Emley Moor 69, Droitwich 79, Windows 95 This message was sent using IMP, the Internet Messaging Program. -- ___ flexbackup-help mailing list flexbackup-help@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/flexbackup-help
