Does any one know of any programs similar to FASTBACK in the public domain or commercial that I can use to backup hard drives. I remember a similar subject a couple of months ago. Any help would be appreciated. I will sum up to the net if there is enough interest.

I find that for my varied file copying operations, it's great. Different combinations allow me to copy all files or only files with the ARC bit on, to reset or not the ARC bit, to copy or move files, to preserve subdirectory structures, to merge, to update, to work only on the current source directory or all included subdirectories, etc. There's more. It's so good that I actually sent in the $45 shareware registration. It's available on most BBS's and well worth the effort to get it and learn it. -- Philip Burton Xerox Corporation 408 737 4635 ... usual disclaimers apply ...

I recently got a copy of PC- FULLBACK. It is about $55 and seems to do everything that you could want.
