Like so:
# cd /network
# tar czf /backup/backup.tar.gz .
Notice the dot (".") a the end of the 2nd line! That's important 'cos it
refers to the current directory (/network).
Patrick.

Hello,
How does one backup all the contents (files, directories etc) of /network
to a file named backup.tar.gz in /backup??
Thanks, i'm puzzled,
Marcel
