I'm a new guy on the block as far as Sys V (actually Unix v6 was my last major unix playground) And I am working on a Sys V system now. Has anyone make a dump/restor equiv' system for backup or is cpio good enough for incremental type backups OR (final or) do i need to start writting some sh script to check mod times and just use cpio??? Any help would be nice! Dan Smith (aka MadMan) BITNET: SYSBDES@TCSVM ARPA: SYSBDES%TCSVM.BITNET@WISCVM.WISC.EDU UUCP: You Tell Me??

Hopefully you will be able to find a source of backup/restore, since cpio saves have some limitations (as does tar). -- -bill davidsen seismo!rochester!steinmetz!--\ / \ ihnp4! unirot ------------->---> crdos1!davidsen \ / chinet! ---------------------/ (davidsen@ge-crd.ARPA) "Stupidity, like virtue, is its own reward"
