Hello, How about copying the files from the remote location onto a local disk, using something like rsync? You could then use bacula (or tar) to get the files onto the tape. I don't think rsync will just suddenly time out after six days. And if it does, you can just start it up again from where it was interrupted. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Special Offer -- Download ArcSight Logger for FREE!
