Hi I am running suse 9.1 and wish to come up with some type of backup system. How ever I don't know what I should backup. I was thinking that /home and /etc should be backed up. Can any one give me some suggestions on what to backup? I was thinking I could use yast they have a nice backup tool. to make tar files.
This really depends on what the box is for. Anyway, you've already mentioned the important ones (/home, /etc). If you'd like to keep your log files you might want to backup /var as well. If you're using /srv to serve files (html, etc) you might want to keep a backup of that as well, etc. -- - E - on SUSE 9.1 | blackbox 0.65 | copperwalls was here ;) "Those knowing your name will trust in you." - Psalms 9:10
