Operating Systems SCO Backup of files using NFS a faster way Post 302967805 by trolley on Sunday 28th of February 2016 02:36:22 PM
Old 02-28-2016
I did not find rsync on the Skunkware website for OSR5. I did download, compile and install version 3.1.2 from the website for Rsync. I am going to need to learn how to use it.

I did notice on my NAS device, there is a service called rsync.

Yes, I need to have a better backup, where I am not messing with previous days backup. I was trying to get something quick and dirty done. I now need to work on something more secure and beneficial to me.

Thanks for all the suggestions and comments.
