Hello Tim,

This is the header of the actual backup, if this link is broke, we're
all in trouble!

It's not, I checked...

Thanks, seems to be available again now, maybe my end! Thanks, off to look!

Brilliant, Read it, configured it, installed it and backup in progress as I type, Perfect.

Two question if I may...

I have set it to run daily as the default suggests. Does this daily backup overwrite the previous one on the server? (Basically I want it to run daily but I will actually fetch the data about weekly I think) I hope the server will retain just the latest copy?

Second if I wish to alter settings what do I need to look at, or can I just "reinstall" with fresh settings? (Sorry, showing my Newbie status!)

Finally with a fairly vanilla Raq4 am I right in thinking the default settings will backup the files sufficient for a complete recreation of the server later if needed (after OS restore etc) (inc MySQL, majordomo etc)

Many many thanks

Tim
