[ale] New backup plan 2004

[Michael E. Barker]

I use cygwin and the xserver to forward x over ssh.

The windows admins don't seem to be impressed, nor do they get enthused 
when I show them my linux server uptime of more than a year.

They seem to be really into pushing new security policies to the clients 
and sucking up client resources with scheduled virus scans. :-D

Thanks for the link.
