Re: [Networker] verify backup of particular file?

I can think of a quick and dirty way: use the commandline recover
command.  For example, say you want know now about /etc/hosts.allow,
use the versions query to find out when this file was last backed up
and to what volume(s).  From my own system:

% recover -s SERVER
recover> cd /etc

Then use the versions query:

recover> versions hosts.allow

Versions of `/etc/hosts.allow':

   2 -r--r--r--     1491 Sep 17 12:42  hosts.allow
     save time:  Sat Sep 28 01:07:13 2002        
      location:  TaylorIncr.026 at DLT3

   2 -r--r--r--     1491 Sep 17 12:42  hosts.allow
     save time:  Sat Sep 21 01:04:45 2002        
      location:  TaylorIncr.022 at DLT2

     save time:  Sat Sep  7 01:16:54 2002        
      location:  TaylorFull.008

Hope this helps!
