Yeah, that might be a good idea :-) Well, I'm doing great; I answer my
email about once a week!
Well, I've thought about that occasionally - restoring that is. I guess
I'd have to just reload the system and then copy the target files back to
their original places.
I'll have to play with that on

Thanks Jack and Michael for the pointers! Sorry to take so long to get
back. I've used the --exclude option as Michael suggested for now. Also
thanks for pointing out the -z option for tar; believe it or not I thought
I was actually using that already, I guess my biggest problem is not
paying at
The man page for tar will give you several options that are available,
one option is --exclude.
You also might want to look at: --compress and --gzip to compress
the data as it is being tared.

why reinvent the wheel? Go to freshmeat.net and type cd backup into the
search. cdbkup is the one I picked, it seems to work. I only use it for
my MP3 repository though, everything else is just rsynced to multiple
systems.

after this step /Data/Backup/GnomeCard.vcf no longer exists if it has
been modified
So if I completely understand it, there is no .bak file in the beginning ?
mv and cp don't see this file, so they assume the sourcefile is newer than the not-existing destination file.

HI,
If you want the same answer to all questions for a particular command,
there is an amazing little utility by the name of "yes"
By default it echos an endless stream of y characters. If you pass it
anything as an argument, then that is what is echoed endlessly instead.
You can almost cert
