[CentOS] Backing up CentOS

[Chris Peikert]

Thanks. I found on Symantecs website the download for the Remote backup
piece of Veritas for Linux. Veritas gives a very easy to follow instructions
on how to install it. I probably just have to create the username Veritas
uses to backup with on the Linux box. Theory of operation says that should
work. I bought Red Hat Enterprise 4 for Dummies and it finally came in so
when I get chances I been reading it.

I saw these links at RedHat about active directory and such while
looking for recompiling kernel questions
