My view of a HowTo's purpose is to make the described service useful to a wide audience. You don't interact with or administer window$ systems? If we limited the HowTos to centos-specific issues, they would read like a readme file. Consider the centos wiki mail HowTos which contain significant non-centos information that helps people get their mail server up and running securely. > As I stated in the guide, it's primary content is for installing > configuring BackupPC on CentOS, and backing up across rsync to other > Linux servers. Yes, I back up content and configurations on my web and mail servers along with my linux workstations using it. Adding window$ and Mac clients strikes me as a natural and useful extension. Steve
