I've had a few problems here and there but they have been solved fairly quickly. I've had to run full tree rebuilds overnight several times but never lost anything I've missed. :) I do run nightly backups to an external disk, that's probably why I never lost anything. Murphy is waiting for the external disk to fail before he screws me. :) -- Zan Lynx <zlynx@xxxxxxx>
