Hi
I have always wondered if it would be possible to back up just the
changed or new data of big (over hundered Megabytes) files with Kermit?
Something like: $Kermit -s "only what is new in this huge file, to
the same other huge file in a far away computer just to make this
remote file updated to the originating file". The file type is
indexed,prolog 1, using 2 keys in 3 areas, variable length,
maximum 250 bytes, carriage return,carriage control. What I intend to
do is a cheap off site backup. Thanks for any help or comments.
