 Unix Tip #4321- January  9, 2025
 
BACKUP THE REMOTE ESSENTIALS  
  
There are many programs, data files, and especially  
license files that sit out on remote workstations  
and servers that you may should be backing up  
remotely.  
  
If backing up the entire system puts a strain  
on your network, make sure that all the  essential  
files at least get backed up.  
  
Some files may be  
/var/flexlm  
/usr/local/flexlm  
/var/netls  
/var/license  
/etc/passwd  
/etc/hosts  
/etc/groups  
/etc/netgroups  
/etc/shadow  
/vmunix  
/kernel  
etc....  
 NOTE: All tips provided are USE AT YOUR OWN RISK. Tips are submitted
by various unix admins around the globe. UGU suggest you read and
test each tip in a non-volitile environment before placing into
