After getting Leopard set up and most software installed it was time to set up Mozy again. I’m backing up about 30GB to Mozy and if all the files had to be sent again it would take days at my upload speed. Even though I was doing a complete re-install of everything I’d be restoring [...]

Updated 8/28: See section in red block. Mozy released MacMozy 0.6.2.2 (23015), their online backup software for the Mac which is still in beta.
