Is there a PD backup utility like tar or cpio that backs up files and compresses them at the same time? We've found a commercial package called bru that does this, but it's pretty pricey for our systems ($2000US). I've tried to think of how I could incorporate Unix's own compress utility along with tar but I can't see a workable solution. The compress operation has to be an inherent part of the backup process. Any one know of something that might do the trick? Note: Preferably for System V Unix. Thanks. -- Peter Steele Acadia Univ.
