Hello all,

=20

Can someone spare a minute and provide me with a small tutorial on what
a block under box backup is.

=20

I am trying to figure out new portions of code to me, and It looks like
the windows version is calculating them wrongly but not sure why.

=20

It appears that the client decides on the block size for a given file, I
always thought it was fixed as the server allocates a number of blocks
for an account...

=20

Thanks

=20

Nick
