Hmm, it works fine for me.
Try this version:
<http://developer.apple.com/documentation/MacOSX/Conceptual/
BPSystemStartup/Tasks/CustomLogin.html>
I am just a newbie. Impossible to access this page for non members.
Dead end.
The "#!/bin/sh..." is a shell script that the login hook would call
when a user logs out. In the shell script you can place your
AppleScript, running the AppleScript through the shell tool osascript.
To run an AppleScript with osascript you can pass each line to the
command through the -e flag. So this shell script:
----
#!/bin/sh
/usr/bin/osascript -e 'tell application "Finder"' \
-e 'display dialog "script ran"' \
-e 'end tell'
----
The backslashes are there to indicate to the shell that the command is
continued on the next line. This shell script runs the AppleScript:
----
tell application "Finder"
display dialog "script ran"
end tell'
----
Obviously you would want to use a different AppleScript script that
would do a backup.

I think this is a bit too much for me.
Thanks anyway, Ken.
Maybe in another life... I'll try anyway. Promissed. ;-)
