I have a similar, but somewhat more complex problem. I want to backup the entire /usr/home directory to another machine on the network. FTP has not been disabled (yet) and I have NcFTP installed. ssh is also set up between the two machines, so scp is available. The first machine has very little disk space available, so I don't think I can tar the directory tree on the native machine. I've also installed the rsync port. I don't have a time problem, I could leave the job running overnight. Any suggestions or recommendations would be welcome. -- Roger
