Does anyone know how to move the Kmail mail folders to a network drive so they can be backed up but still be able to access the folders localy?
Thanks, Jon
Using NFS on the Server export the /home partition. On your client workstation mount -t nfs <server IP>:/home /mnt/server/home 1) Copy the ~/Mail directory to the home dir of the mount cp ~/Mail to /mnt/server/home/<user> 2) Backup your ~/Mail dir mv ~/Mail ~/mail.bak 3) Create a link from the mounted mail dir to your directory ln -s /mnt/server/<user>/Mail ~/ The above is a bit brief - if you want more details please ask. -- Regards, Graham Smith ---------------------------------------------------------
