I was browsing the website of a computer supplier and saw an ad for an HP "Simple Save" external disk drive, which automatically initiates a hard disk backup (on Windows) when the disk is plugged into a USB port. Later this year I'll be sending my daughter to University with a Fedora-loaded laptop (she grew up on Linux :-) and have been thinking about backup options for her -- and this sounded like a cool approach. Instead of the unsafe autorun-file technique, though, I picture an app that would check the UUID on disks (or the maybe the FS volume name) as they are plugged in, and when a UUID is recognized, backup would automagically commence. But before I go off and write such a tool ... anyone know of an existing apps that does this? (yum search doesn't seem to be finding any likely candidates). -Chris -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
