I created a backup script that emails all the admins when the backup is complete and attaches a log file of what what backed up. On occasion, something happens in which the backups stop working, I started "grep"ing around /var/log/syslog and I usually find the smoking gun. My goal is to zcat... (8 Replies)
Hello

Hi Guys,
I have a backup program that creates incremental backups and generates a MD5 hash at the same time.
Each server backup has its own sub folder.
Each backup file has a corresponding .md5 file containing a hash and a file name like this.
