which is fine, until the server itself goes TU. (toes up). Then you could have corruption on both...

Best thing for backups is to schedule a cron job do backup the sites / or core databases periodically and FTP it to your home machine...

Unfortunately, this month is looking like it's either pay the rent or get a server. If I was still single I know what the answer would be, but my family objects to living in the car. However, it does have air-conditioning... hmm... Let me talk it over with my wife. :dvvbash:






Hey, this makes post #300! :bananadan
