In that case, you could: - restore the database dump file from your later backups - rebuild another catalog database from your catalog backup - temporarily start using the new catalog (console use command) - make the restores you need - resume to original catalog (eg. 'use bacula') - drop the temporary database Of course, you may also feel more free to experiment with bscan, if you first run the make_catalog_backup script. It generates an ascii dump file that you can always use to restore your catalog, if you screw things with eg. bscan. -- TiN ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
