If you know the file name but not the directory, then restore option 2: "List Jobs where a given File is saved" might the way to go. If you want to manually walk down the directory tree trying to guess what the name was, then use option 6: "Select backup for a client before a specified time". __Martin ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is Sponsored by the Better Software Conference & EXPO September 19-22, 2005 * San Francisco, CA * Development Lifecycle Practices Agile & Plan-Driven Development * Managing Projects & Teams * Testing & QA Security * Process Improvement & Measurement * http://www.sqe.com/bsce5sf _______________________________________________ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users
