All,
	I have a quick question about back up. I user tar to back up /home
and my question is if a user has a file locked (in use) does tar still back
it up or does it skip it? I was thinking of writing a script that stops smb,
does the tar, then restarts smb. Is this necessary? I appreciate the info.

Cheers,
