Do a search on www.macosxhints.com for info on Samba. There was a good article about changing the defaul (it includes digging into Unix a bit though). David

Or you can try psync. It is a command-line utility (do a search on MacOSXHints.com), but it works great. David

I don't know. I haven't looked yet, but that does look like a capability that would be really nice to add. Unfortunately, I'm not going to be spending tons of time working on this app in the immediate future (although I will work on it when I can) because I'm pretty busy with school. However...

It does! Have you tried it? It works fine on my computer and saves the resource fork of Adobe Photoshop files easily. Give it a try before you run it down! :-) David

No, you're fine. I just couldn't understand where you came up with that price! :-) I hope you enjoy the software. David P.S. I'm not the only person giving away software. If Dan Kogai (the guy who wrote psync) wasn't giving psync away, I wouldn't be giving PsyncX away as I would have...

Well the site comes pre-built from SourceForge.net, so you can't say that it is my work. The PsyncX app wasn't actually that hard to do (I just wrote a GUI wrapper for the psync command-line app). I consider it a learning experience as I really wanted to learn Cocoa, but I didn't want to make...

Well, it won't hurt you! :-) I've been using psync on my computer for at least 4 months now without any problems. David

Well, the about box is actually pretty easy. All you need to do is specify where your icon is and Cocoa pretty much builds it for you. You could download the PsyncX source code (sorry here we go again, but it is the only app with an about box that I have built) and take a look at what I did to...

Good! :-) David

Is it advertising if the application is free? :-) Yeah, I have already apologized to Ed and now to everyone else: "I'm sorry for going bonkers. I just thought it would be helpful for other people to know about my app. What is your app called and where can we get ahold of it? David

Yeah, it makes an exact replica of your hard drive (if you want it to). That is one of the reasons I decided to write a GUI for psync. I just really liked it and thought that other people (who don't like command lines) might find it really useful. David

Who said anything about $99? It's free! :-) Of course, if you want to send me $99 for it, that is fine too! :-) David

Well, it should backup to anything that mounts on the desktop (which includes remote servers, disk images, hard drives, etc.) Does your tape drive mount on the desktop? If it doesn't it probably won't work with PsyncX. Another clarification. While PsyncX (the GUI) is my app, the CLI app...

Hi, I just finished up an application called PsyncX which sounds remarkably like the application you are talking about. You can download it from my website http://sourceforge.net/projects/psyncx Do you think we should just use this app? David

Yes, PsyncX is out :-) I'm not sure if it works with the OnStream Echo. However, if that hard drive can mount in the Finder it should work with PsyncX. I personally use a Maxtor 80 GB drive and it has worked great for me ever since I bought it. David

You can also use PsyncX (available from VersionTracker). It works a lot like CCC. David

I've heard that that is a problem with CCC. You could try downloading PsyncX (which I just released) from VersionTracker.com It is free. David

You can try psync (do a search on macosxhints.com) or if you want a GUI use PsyncX (available from VersionTracker.com) David

So does PsyncX (available from VersionTracker). David

PsyncX (available from VersionTracker) seems to work better than CCC. Just my opinion. (Note: I wrote PsyncX, but only because I really liked the way psync, the app that PsyncX is based on, works) David
