First of all: Thanks for your answer. I nearly thought I get ignored on this list. :) Maybe it's a bad idea, I can't decide this, but couldn't bacula compare _filesizes_ also to decide, wether a file has changed? This could be done configurably, so people who don't want that could turn it off. It could be also done on a per FileSet basis. If it is a bad idea, please explain why. mfg Eric
