I was told of a site that has it: ucsd.edu (128.54.16.1). Again, if I'm running the Mac side of this software and someone else at my site compiles and runs the unix side, they can back up my hard drive, even if what I've compiled on the unix box is only runable by myself. I use a tape drive for my Macs, and there are other methods available. Still, this could be useful to someone who has a different situation. -- Brian Aslakson aslakson@cs.umn.edu mac-admin@cs.umn.edu <-= Macintosh related
