Hey guys,

I've got 2 linux servers running here - one is a Gentoo box and one runs Red 
Hat.  I'd like to make images of the drives to an NFS share on a Windows 
Server - for disaster recovery purposes.  My 1st thought was dd...  to use 
dd I'd need to boot a live cd on the linux server and set up the NFS share - 
then do the dd to it correct?

I also have Norton Ghost - I could use that I suppose...

Any thoughts? Ideas?

Thank you!

-Chris
