When I run this with the -j option, it stops if someone has a particular
file open on the network. Is there a way to bypass this and make it
continue anyway, without hurting the end user that has the file open?
Thanks,
Darryl

if you haven't already, you could use the "-j" option with tar to
compress with the bzip2 program. for example, "tar jcf tarfilename
<files>". this should do the trick. ;-)
