Title: Backup of staff folders on a SME Server
Post by: asys on February 15, 2006, 10:07:41 PM

I have SME Server up and running. We were using OpenBSD 3.3 for a last server. Thought I would try SME. Seems to work great. For backing up the OpenBSd server I just attached an external USB hard drive to my computer because I could see all the drives as well as all staff folders and was able to use backup software every night to backup all the drives as well as all the staff home drives. Under the SME Server I can see all the drives (I-Bays) on my computer but the staffs personal folders that we created when you create a new user and only they can see them. Is there anyway I can see the staff folders on my computer without logging in as them, to backup their files or is using the Tape Backup system the only way.??

Check out Backup2 at http://no.longer.valid/phpwiki/index.php/SME7Contribs

It will backup to a USB device. The backup will include the users Home directories.
