G'day, how have you been?
I see your point in using tar in the backup,
I have been going the the actual directory that I want to backup, typing pwd, then copy the full line location you know and then using
cp -Rpf options like you already know.
I might give it a go with the tar option, so thank you for that.
One other thing Thruma, find and replace, im having fun with gawk, to make things a less painless on my side to update or add various hardlinks on 1000's of indexed pages across many domains.
The more time i can save on one task can give myself time to focus on other tasks and so on.
Always
