Same here! I thought that a "Professional" OS would come with decent backupsolution - just compare to WinXP: it has a great backupsoftware that can even backup files that are use (only it doesn't do any software compressions itself). But from SuSE... we get nothing. Well there is tar, but it is hardly comparable... and probably can not handle open files correctly.
Suggestions are welcome (rather OpenSource or otherwise freeware as 9.1 Pro already costs enough...)

Don't mean to sound rude to you guys, but it seems neither of you know how to ask a question or don't know how to use your software. Maybe both. Hugo, talking up WinXP and slandering SuSE is not likely to get you a whole lot of attention, except bad, on this list. If in your mind that's how you accomplish relating to people or getting answers, then you might want to seek help. There are several backup programs available and I'm not going to do your work for you either. Open YaST2 and do a search for them. Go on Sourceforge.net and do a search for them. It's really not that difficult, oh wait, I guess it is, since neither of you have bothered to look already. :o) Regards, Lee
