Does it have an option to store (not transmit, but store) only the difference between an original version of the file and the current version? E.g. if there is hugefile.dat and I copy it over once a month, then every day copy over hugefile.dat.200706##.dif so that I have the ability to restore to any point from the first to the last of the month and the space requirement is not sizeof(hugefile.dat)*31 ? --- James Newton: PICList webmaster/Admin mailto:jamesnewton@piclist.com 1-619-652-0593 phone http://www.piclist.com/member/JMN-EFP-786 PIC/PICList FAQ: http://www.piclist.com -- http://www.piclist.com PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist
