Hi! Kai,

On 23 Mar 19 12:36, you wrote to me:

I tried to keep it simple, by using just 'tar'.  The daily images are 
essentially snapshots of running Fido systems, mostly my own but some are 
offsite backup dailies for another node.  The weeklies, well really only one 
now, is for my point's Fido config. All of this traffic is pushed around to my 
non-listed binkD server by cron jobs.

Gotta go... time for backups...

Cheers,
Paul.
