Yes I am very interested in getting this tool, as it would most likely solve
my problems. Please send a copy of this application to my mailing address (
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ). Does bacula set the archive flag? If not, will I have
to set the archive flag on these files to ensure the tool sets a new file
date? Thanks for the help!
Sincerely,
-Michael
