Subject GBAK - last date and time (stamp)
Author m2data
Hi,

All our customers use cron (nncron) (hate AT) on windows
(XP,NT,2000) to run gbak every night before the tape/CD/Zip backup
runs.

My problem is that I would like to check the date and time of the
last gbak from the client and show a popup saying "Your backup is
more the 2 days old".

The ideal solution would be something like having gbak to write the
stamp into the database when gbak finishes!

I know I could share the folder on the server and check the date
through the filesystem, but some of our customers uses gbak on
Zip/CD directly and I don't like shares (people should keep there
hands off the server!!)

Any suggestions?
