Amanda is great if you have lots and lots of machines and a single HUGE tape drive. However, I have a single laptop and no tape drive. Still looking for a Linux-compatible 30-80 GB tape drive that is most likely going to be USB. Has anyone used the Seagate Travan TapeStor 40 (STT6401U2-R) or the OnStream USB 30 or ADR2.60usb? I haven't heard anything Linux about the former, but the OnStream USB 30 seems as if it should be supported, but am not sure about the ADR2.60usb. If you have any info about these drives, I would appreciate hearing about it. -- Bill Wohler <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.newt.com/wohler/ GnuPG ID:610BD9AD Maintainer of comp.mail.mh FAQ and MH-E.
