Re: Own up Shog919-Aug-02 11:44 Shog9 19-Aug-02 11:44  Ok, that was me... Sometimes i forget to backup until i'm already synching source trees; not much left to do at that point! --- Shog9 Actually I use to find learning in bars when drinking really useful.

You might want to try some version control software then. Try CVS or even a Visual Source Safe for that matter. Having that all you need to do is to backup the versions database from time to time depending on the amount of changes in the project. Version control software will usually reduce the space used up for projects backup as well.

I don't use it at work, so its a little strange to get into the habit of doing it when I'm the only developer working on it -- Paul "It's always the last drink that kills you."

Christian Graus18-Aug-02 19:02 Christian Graus 18-Aug-02 19:02  I have three computers networked together, and one of them is inside my daughters bed ( i.e. it takes about a half hour to get to it ) So all backups go to that machine. If there's a fire, we're in trouble, but if we get robbed, it's pretty safe. I can remote it from my main machine so it gets shut down properly, etc. It rules.
