[nflug] backups on an nfs server

[Mark Musone]

Why can't you just run the tar on the server itself?
What do you mean by "incrementing" ?

which would be better with a mounted nfs share from a nfs server.

executing a tar and gzip command to package a home dir on the servers
share from the client or
executing a tar and gzip command to package a home dir on the client and
then moving the package to the servers share?


I will want to increment files once a full backup is created, so I'm not
sure which would be better in the long run.
What seems to be quicker is to execute the increment on the share across
the network instead of always moving/coping a large package from client
to server.

Thank you for your input,
Eric
