• Using THINIFS/SRVIFS for backup purposes

    From David H. Durgee@21:1/5 to All on Tue Feb 28 13:34:51 2017
    I have an older server I am still running that I had been running
    backups from a maintenance partition via a Jaz drive. The Jaz drive
    recently died and as they are long in the tooth I am reluctant to
    replace it at this point.

    I remembered the THINIFS/SRVIFS networking used for remote installations
    and was thinking that perhaps there would be a way that I could add that
    to my maintenance partition and use it to network to another system
    where I could save the backups. This would require minimal changes to
    my backup scripts, simply replacing the drive letter of the Jaz drive
    with that of the networked drive.

    Is there a package of this out there with documentation for this sort of application? I should be able to crib from my server configuration
    files to get the network card information.
