Re: Backup strategey? (Was: Preventing windows from scr...)
hi ya cormac
two synchronized copies??? am assuming that mean that if you erased
foo.txt on the master... it erases it on the other disk too???
- if you lost your files/data on the master... it wasn't
mirrored/synchronized to the other set .... hummm....
- curious to see how/why you lost the data/files in the first place
- it should have erased it on the other set too depending on
failure mode
.......
- automated backup...
- use cron...
- free backup scripts...
