Philip,

sbackup by itself, will not write the backups to a cd or dvd. In fact, sbackup will not start or will quit if there is a blank cd in the drive. I only know this because I tested it.

You can however burn the backup directory (where the backups go) to cd or dvd.

Please report back here and change the question status to Solved if this resolves your question.

Thanks!

Harvey
