Hi In one of my most recent attempt's to backup our mailserver i used afbackup.
I defined a set of 5 tapes but used only 3. I did a full backup and everything went (apparently) ok. To test that everything was reaaly ok i did a afverify and it only complained on the files that had changed size, etc. To further test i removed a file from my home directory and i tried to restore it, the problem is that i could figure how i would tell afbackup to restore that particular file, so i decided to run it in the mode where it says wich files it would restore under the terms passed as parameters to it. It started by asking tape number 3 then 2 then 1 then 5 (???). But i don't have nothing on tape 5. Supposing that my home is /home/sc/mjnf/ and the file is teste.txt how would i tell afbackup to : restore the file? restore the directory? restore the whole backup? I've tried reading through the man page but (maybe i'm kinda of dumb) i coul'nt undertand it. Thanks -- Mario Filipe [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://neptuno.sc.uevora.pt/~mjnf
