Following some recommendations from the list I installed yesterday Kdat and have the two following problems 1. I am using an HP DAT tape drive and I do not know what block size I should put. 2. when creating a backup definition, I am unable to specify anything but the / directory and no files appear in the list box. If I specify directly the files to backup everything works fine any Ideas?
