That won't really work. The NFS clients run cPanel and we need a way for end-users to have full access to their backups all the time. We used to run backup over FTP, but then when a client wanted to restore data one of the techs first had to download it from the backup server and then let the client restore it. So I'm trying to cut down on unnecessary support tasks. -- Kind Regards Rudi Ahlers SoftDux Website: http://www.SoftDux.com Technical Blog: http://Blog.SoftDux.com Office: 087 805 9573 Cell: 082 554 7532 _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
