Peter,

I ran dSync as noted in a later message using your command line:

>dSync -v dSync-C-L.cfg

Now I have screwed up my Warpcenter and want to restore from L: to C:

I assume the above command line will work if I change the cfg file to show
L:\ as the source path and C:\ as the destination path and change the name
of the log file. I also assume that swapper.dat will be copied back since
it was preceded by a semi-colon in the paths section of the cfg file.

Are my assumptions correct?

Thanks for all of the help. I am just checking here because what I
propose to do seems to be logical but I have found what I think is logical
is sometimes not.

Jack
