X-Priority: 3 (Normal) References: Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-questions@FreeBSD.ORG X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk I was wondering if it is possible to do a backup to a FTP site or something along those lines. I have one server that is running low on disk space, and I need to do full backups of it regularly. I need to get the backup to a shudder) NT system because that is where the tape is. (I know this is completely wrong but) if I could do something like: tar -??? / | ftp test:ABA@ftp.my.domain/backup/DATE.tar Is there any way to do this? Thanks for your help! -Sean ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Sean J.
