<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Calibri><span style='font-size:11.0pt'>Just
out curiosity when I look to back-up my rancid directories are there any
special considerations I should be concerned about? I have attempted to look
on-line for procedures to back-up Rancid but all I can seem to find are the
tutorials for backing up network equipment. What I am looking to do is to
back-up the rancid system in-case of hardware or software failure. Thank you in
advance for your help.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
