Title: backup to CD-RW drive
Post by: Marc Verzani on July 04, 2001, 05:48:54 PM

Has anyone customized the Backup feature on the e-smith server to work nicely with a CD-RW drive installed in the server.

Is There a manager interface to schedule this script or to configure your drive anywhere??

Thanks.
