Hi All and happy new year,

After the umount the directory vanishes.

I'd guess that something is rm-ing the mount point while it's mounted, so that when you umount it, it disappears.

Indeed but what? :-(

I'd guess some unintended side-effect of the backup program/script.

The bash commands in the earlier post are manually entered in a terminal. The cron job isn't active. Even if I set the file read only it vanishes ( eg chmod 500 /mnt/backup). Bug in umount?

:-( Ken
