In the previous summary I neglected to post this alternative solution sent by Charles Lindahl. Please accept my sincerest apologies. >From lindahl@ee.uta.edu Sat Jan 2 01:18:57 1993 I have one solution, which I plan to implement here: 1) Establish a CAP-based mountable disk. 2) Use FRONTIER (a Mac scripting system) to do scheduled mounts of this filespace (at night) and incrementally copy files to this "partition". 3) Use a UNIX CRON job to copy this filespace to tape. It is easiest to use FRONTIER (system 7) to do the "scheduling"; however, it should be possible to write equivalent C code to do the same thing. -- The opinions expressed herein are my own.------------------------------------- !John Caywood, System Administrator !J.S.Caywood@LaRC.NASA.GOV !UNISYS Corp., under contract to Tech.
