Lines: 9 Message-ID: <3psbem$h2t@dpro.unicom.net> Reply-To: greg@unicom.net NNTP-Posting-Host: greg.unicom.net Keywords: auto start/shutdown nfsd X-Newsreader: IBM NewsReader/2 v1.1 On one of our servers we've decided not to run nfsd, however, we're apparently stuck for the time being because we can't back it up directly either. So, does anyone know of a way to autostart and autoshutdown nfsd via some command - and if so what would it look like (we're new at this). Our plan would be to bring nfsd up, back it up to another server across the LAN that has a tape drive and then auto shut-down nfsd. Any help would be appreciated.
