My Sun386i is equipped with a diskdrive and a tapedrive. I tried backing up one or two items in my home directory, SNAP worked fine. But if try to backup "all home directory files", SNAP would work for a while and give me a message saying the backup is complete,then when I check what are actually backed up, I could see only a few items instead of "all"! Since I cannot trust the backup facility, I feel like walking on a thin layer of ice. Anyone has any idea what is wrong with SNAP or with what I am d oing, give me some directions. Thanks in advance!
