I just backup the contents of the /home and /http and /ftp. Personally I wouldn't want to backup the entire system. I can install FreeBSD and make the config file changes and have it back to the way it was in no time. Then I just copy back the stuff on the CD-RW and it's fine. No need really to have the source and ports from /usr or anything. --- Jason jason@jason-n3xt.org On Mon, 1 Oct 2001, Giorgos Keramidas wrote: > Nathan Mace wrote: > > On Sun, 30 Sep 2001 22:48:12 +0000 (GMT) > > Jason wrote: > > > > > I don't keep logs like that.
