I wrote something close to this for linux.com last year: http://www.linux.com/learn/tutorials/188266-beginners-guide-to-linux-desktops-backups-basic-strategies-and-tools In case you wonder why that article says "this is the first article of a three-part series on backups", but there are no links to the others: Linux.com changed management just after publishing the first part and then decided not to proceed with the series. So I put the second part, which I had already written, on my own "tips&tricks" site: http://freesoftware.zona-m.net/how-backup-files-rsync-and-why HTH, Marco -- Why Open Digital Standards Matter in Government http://stop.zona-m.net/digiworld/why-open-digital-standards-matter-government -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
