I wanted to start by thanking you for all your help; I should have posted this sooner but, the backup worked and there doesn't seem to have been any ill effects.
I have not had time to explore a more permanent, robust solution due to work constraints but for the time being, people are happy with the backup. However, it is time to backup the server again using the same HD and since you were so helpful last time, I hoped you could provide some tips again.
Basically, how do I go about backing up the server so that only the files that have been added or altered since the last backup are transferred? I imagine this is preferable so the whole backup doesn't take 6+ hours. I know we have discussed this previously, but I couldn't find a definitive answer in your previous posts. Let me know if you need more details.
Again, thank you for your help.
