SuSE uses the following scripts:

Interesting...
Descriptions are located within the scripts. backup_search.pl "feeds" into backup_archive.pl.
I like them very much. HTH.
Do you know if it is possible to make Yast backup remember it's configuration from one run to the next? A configuration file, perhaps? Or do I need to hardcode it?
I have a long list of directories I do not want to backup, and it is a real nuisance that yast doesn't remember them.

I'm really not sure........i have never tried that scenario. I usually just let the script do it's thing. I started making a "snapshot" script. Essentially, it acquired as much "vital" information as possible upon a reboot, failure, etc....... And these scripts were called from it. Interesting idea though. Given that it already is fed from the other script, it should be fairly easy to call upon a "listing" or configuration file from say: /var/adm/backup/backup_weekly.conf Let me know how it works. ;) - -- Thomas Jones Linux-Howtos Network Administrator OpenGPG Key: 0x6A3DF6E9 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.2-rc1-SuSE (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE/AihHQT2komo99ukRAlMoAKCncqqW5V0gH6mN+XANlutDzDGDgwCgyXE0 S55Aoa/YwY/sQqlwZDl9CZc= =JA3d -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
