Hi, what would you recommend for doing backups of our lab
computers? We have a couple of older linux machines, cooelab1,
cooelab3, which I really rely on. They’ve gotten so old I can’t
update them. Cooelab1 is Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release
5.8 (Tikanga) and cooelab3 is 5.10. Before the lockdown I seem to
remember trying unsuccessfully to mount an external hard drive.
Maybe there’s a network storage solution we could use? Dave.<br>
