I am running 2.2.1-RELEASE and need a way of backing up my FreeBSD box. I don't have any backup solution hardware on the box itself, however i have installed samba. Of course programs like winzip, etc. don't back up the file attributes that it zips. -- Is there another way? Or am I stuck with trying to zip the entire system from FreeBSD and then saving out on my NT server? Someone mentioned a backup program for FreeBSD.. I can't recall if it was a FreeBSD ran program or otherwise. Thanks for any help.
