Hi Slávek, Lol, interesting, but TMI ;) - What’s the max size you’ve ever needed? - How many unique backups do you want? * - Rsync fine? Push? Pull?(what are the paths and creds?) ** - cron every 4 hours okay? It’ll take half an hour to setup, and I guess we can stop spamming the rest of the list, so just send to me personally for the rest... Best, Michael michael@ * I’ll do one here at home off of one of my servers as well. ** I prefer pull, but just from a security issue of not giving people access to my servers. PS: I’ll send you a copy of my final script so you can automate the remote location you were talking about too. ____________________________________________________ tde-users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Web mail archive available at https://mail.trinitydesktop.org/mailman3/hyperkitty/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
