Can anybody pls help me on how to have a full back up of a Mail Server (Running on Debian and Exim) ... I want to have a full backup of the mail Server on a different drive with all the users and directory permissions the same with the original server.
"man tar" - you probably don't have the same hardware on your backup server in case of emergency:
tar cvf /backup/file+dir.tar --preserve --numeric-owner \ /etc/exim* /etc/passwd /etc/shadow \ /var/spool/mail/ /var/spool/exim/ Bye Volker Tanger IT-Security Consulting -- discon gmbh Wrangelstraße 100 D-10997 Berlin fon +49 30 6104-3307 fax +49 30 6104-3461 volker.tanger@discon.de http://www.discon.de/
