[GLLUG] backing it up

[John T. Hale]

I use a tape drive -- a SDT-11000 DAT drive. using a combination of 
find, ssh and hfstar, I backup my laptop (running mac OS X) over the 
network to the tape server running linux.

I attended a GLLUG meeting last year that had a great handout on 
writing backup scripts; I think this was part of the Linux 
certification program (?) I also recommend _Unix Backup and Recovery_ 
by W. Curtis Preston.
