chronik Posted October 3, 2004 Posted October 3, 2004 I have a network at the office which i need to setup to auto backup a certain folder or driver every day to the server pc ... ok now all the computers are macs with the exception of the server computer being a pc .. is there such a software avalable? the network is already connected and working i just need it to check a folder and back it up on the master pc server .. is there a software out there that makes this possible? thanks
zivan56 Posted October 4, 2004 Posted October 4, 2004 Since the mac's are based on unix you can set up a CRON job every day on them. Just simply make a script to do the following#!/bin/bashtar cvjf /Disk/Mount/backup.tar.gz /System /Home /etcThen it would compress and back up the /system /Home /etc folder to the file which would then be saved to a mounted Windows share (assuming /Disk/Mount/ is where the windows share is mounted on the macs)
