Ok, thanks - as ever - for a prompt reply. For now I'm happy to run backups by hand (or simply shedule them for a period during the day when I expect to be logged in as admin), but I may look at a psync or rsync solution in the longer term.

P.S. I still intend to try the fix that you sent me to see if I can stop the home partition being unmounted during a backup...just waiting to get some time on the server when no users are logged in!
