I need a simple system for regular backups. The easiest would be to make one big tar file out of my home directory and copy it to an external disk via scp.
But is there a max size limit for tar files? Can I trust tar and make one big tar file, e.g. 25 GB of my entire home directory?
I cannot answer that question, but I've been VERY happy with DAR and KDar doing my backups and splitting them into 2GB slices. -- kai Free Compean and Ramos http://www.perfectreign.com/?q=node/46 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
