I don't normally read this group. I'm looking for a script that can work with tar such that tar writes its output to standard out and reads the filenames to backup on stdin. Simplified example available on other machines: find . -print | tar tvf - - > dumpfile Is this available with tar? Is there an option on wbak that will not follow NFS mounts?
