Back up Entourage data files automatically
Authored by: mervTormel on Jul 07, '03 08:07:35PM

this kind of op should be put in /etc/daily.local so that it survives subsequent OS updates.

examine /etc/daily and you see a callout to /etc/daily.local - it's what it's there for.

Thanks for that. I'm from a UNIX background (AIX and Solaris) so am not used to the way Apple uses cron so I'll bear this in mind. I did know about resource forks but didn't think Entrourage used them - again I may be wrong on this.

Thanks for the advice, I'll bear this in mind with future scripts I write.

Andy
