no, in sense of configuration. this is a known limitation of gzip compression. if you're on LAN (gigabit) you might wan't to disable it if you backup to tape (use tapes hardware compression) or if you backup to file, use a compressed filesystem (maybe: http://miio.net/wordpress/ projects/fusecompress/ - LZO is fast) yes in sense of coding: you could write a patch. :) - Thomas ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Let Crystal Reports handle the reporting - Free Crystal Reports 2008 30-Day trial.
