Hi, Neil Bothwick , on 24-May-96 08:33:18 you scribbled.... >Hi there Dr. Peter Kittel, I believe it was you who said: >> In article <4ni6te$iu1@ug1.plk.af.mil> rudd@ug1.plk.af.mil (Douglas Rudd) >> wr >>>>>> BTW I never got 99% here... >>>>>You won't get 50% on AFS. When it dies, it does it 100% effectively. >>>>That's not AFS's fault thats lack of repair tools.. >> But AFS *swears* that lost data are things of the past when using it. >> So this promise obviously doesn't hold. >So you've never deleted the wrong file by mistake. It may be the >user's fault, but with FFS you can undelete it with DiskSalv or >similar. say you deleted c:loadwb ;) what could be simpler than under AFS: "copy sys:.deldir/loadwb c:loadwb" (or have a Dopus button) under FFS, you fire up disksalv, set it to undelete mode *wait* select file , select destination,*wait* hmmm which is easier? of course you could just use KAN for both cases... >With something as fundamental as a filing system, peace of mind is >important. I don't care if I never have to use DiskSalv, I still want >it there. I suppose you never backup your data, laying all your hopes on disksalv if any problem should occur?
