I've been rearranging directories in my public website, and corresponding directories on the fileserver. The most recent operation was to move theStarport.com/people/steve/Doc/ to theStarport.com/Steve_Savitzky/. Everything went well; I did the move, made the corresponding move in the CVS repository (it's done using a one-line find command), fixed up the Makefiles (two similar one-liners), and then went to move the latest backup directory so that the next rsync wouldn't have to copy all the sound files and other bulky stuff.

That's when I noticed that /bak/usr/local/starport was a symlink. I'd installed a new, large disk on the fileserver a little over a month ago, and moved /usr/local into a separate partition called /local. I then made a new /usr/local just for the fileserver. I was backing up the new directory, which was in the same old place, but not the new partition. Oops.

No real harm done -- there haven't been many changes since late March when I installed the new disk. Except for the major changes I made this weekend, and I've backed all that up now.
