Legato works. It basically does the job and the people who use it don't seem to report any problems with it. I don't know of any reason why Legato would be any better than other similar products. Amanda sounds promising (everyone is recommending it). I've asked a colleague who's into backups (and who has been using Legato for years) to investigate Amanda and write a report comparing them. We should probably get the Debian web page changed. A commercial program has to be a LOT better than DFSG free programs to deserve a mention on our web pages IMHO. -- http://www.coker.com.au/selinux/ My NSA Security Enhanced Linux packages http://www.coker.com.au/bonnie++/ Bonnie++ hard drive benchmark http://www.coker.com.au/postal/ Postal SMTP/POP benchmark http://www.coker.com.au/~russell/ My home page -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
