Ah, thanks, I completely missed that point :)

Unfortunately that suggestion was already turned down. It is certainly the best 
way to retain backup 
integrity IMO. But the off-site is outside of my control and the requirement is 
to have the actual 
directory and file structure readily accessible, hence the "restore".

I agree, but again that idea fails in this case because of a lack of control 
I'm afraid.

Thanks anyhow, at least I know that I will not be waisting time with the 
output-to-file-and-parse-with-
Perl idea :)
