The current backup programs are: tar & cpio dump/rdump amanda Amanda is a backup management program that is excellent for backing up several systems through one or more tapes on a tape host. Dump/rdump back up entire filesystems at once; rdump lets you backup one system to another. tar & cpio are pretty straightforward. The book "UNIX System Administration Handbook" contains some backup strategies, including incremental and Tower of Hanoi sequences. There is some information in the Handbook in Section 10.5. Hope this gets you started. Doug White | University of Oregon Internet: dwhite@resnet.uoregon.edu | Residence Networking Assistant http://gladstone.uoregon.edu/~dwhite | Computer Science Major
