I'm dying to try this, but hesitant. If I move everything slimserver-related to a different folder and it doesn't work, how can I be sure I'm returning all the moved (backed-up) files to their correct place? Is there some equivalent of the Windows trash can that will restore everything to its original location if I need to revert to the present state? -- leonyu13 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/unix
