You don't interact with or administer window$ systems? Yes, I interact with Windows systems. All my desktop machines at work are Windows, however I don't back anything up from them. I use roaming profiles under Samba, which is under Linux. All user settings are then backed up normally from the Linux Samba server. > If we limited the HowTos to centos-specific issues, they would read like > a readme file.

Again, my guide stated it was primarily for a CentOS BackupPC server backing up other Linux servers and machines. If you want it to be more broad, then add the content that you want. That's the entire point of a Wiki. > Yes, I back up content and configurations on my web and mail servers > along with my linux workstations using it.

So, if you need it, then write the sections and add it. Eventually I might need those aspects of BackupPC, but for now, I don't. Considering that you don't seem to be volunteering your time and writing to adding to the page, you seem to be awfully picky and demanding of what I spent time writing. If it's not what you want, improve on it then. For the third time to everyone, if you have something you want to change, add, edit, or delete, go to it. I don't know how to be more clear that I don't care if you want to edit or add to any of my pages I've contributed to. That being said, I'm personally done discussing this. You don't seem to be very appreciative to others volunteering any kind of time to the Wiki. Regards, Max
