You could just backup xtrn       once to keep the settings and then any files that change on a more regular       basis. You can get a really Linux cheap storage VPS (check out lowendbox or       lowendtalk). My last backup took 5 minutes across the Atlantic.              ---        þ Synchronet þ End Of The Line BBS - endofthelinebbs.com        * Origin: Vertrauen - [vert/cvs/bbs].synchro.net (1:103/705)       SEEN-BY: 10/0 1 102/401 103/1 17 705 105/81 106/201 124/5016 128/187       SEEN-BY: 153/7715 154/110 218/0 1 215 601 700 840 860 880 226/30 227/114       SEEN-BY: 229/110 114 206 317 400 426 428 470 550 700 705 266/512 280/464       SEEN-BY: 291/111 301/1 320/219 322/757 342/200 396/45 460/58 633/280       SEEN-BY: 712/848 902/26 5075/35       PATH: 103/705 218/700 229/426           |
