Greetings Chris,

I have been associated with the Mabel T. Caverly Senior Center (mtc) in a
member and volunteer capacity for more than five years. No provision has
been made for off-site backup. Their back-up was to tape drives -
internal pc. IMMHO, this was a very shaky situation. There was little
understanding of what files needed backing up and how to do a regular
back-up. What with bigger harddisks, files are copied at will, and
except for the one application that seemingly is backed-up regularly,
there is no backup.

Cheerio! fgd.
