Re: subfilebackup: what may I be missing to get it work?

Hallo
and thanks everybody for help,

the problem was located between keyboard and the backrest.
The subfilecachesize was too small.

Anyway, I learned even more through the forum (reportng stats behaviour),
thanks to forum members and masters who keep it going on.


regards
Juraj
