Yeah, you're right: dunno wanna feed the Troll :)
I choosed this solution because people are only users, they can't afford
a full time admin & they can't loose many time in complicated procedures,
so the backup/restore procedure must stay as simple as possible on big tapes.
BTW, for my own knowledge, could you point me to pages that describes
out-of-db big blobs (>5GB) link/unlink & store/wipe to/from DB?
Thanks.
