[cobalt-users] Auto Backup for Qube2



I am wondering if anyone has found a Backup Solution for the Qube2 that will
do daily backups of all User and Group files, writing to a separate media.

I have attempted a Duplicating system where Qube2 #1 would be duplicated by
Qube2 #2 by modifying the smb.conf file this way:

;users - ALL user directories for the purpose of backup
[users]
   browseable = yes
   comment = Cobalt Qube - Users Directories
   create mask = 0755
   path = /home/users
   preserve case = yes
   printable = no
   public = no
   read only = no
   short preserve case = yes
   valid users = admin
   writable = yes
;

This enables me to Browse the Users directory from a NT Workstation but I am
unable to browse the contents of the Private directories.

I was hoping to copy the users directory from Qube2 #1 to Qube2 #2 but I run
into permission problems ("Access Denied") I am able to copy the Admin
folder but nothing else.  Is there a chown command that changes the
permissions of all the Contents of the Users folder or is this not a good
idea?
