	#
	# Copy data from a Time Machine volume mounted on a Linux box.
	#
	# Usage: copy-from-time-machine.sh <source> <target>
	#
	# source: the source directory inside a time machine backup
	# target: the target directory in which to copy the reconstructed
	# directory trees. Created if it does not exists.
	#

	#!/bin/sh

	if [ "$#" -lt "7" ]; then
	echo "usage: $0 <user> <password>" \
	"<network 104.13.9> <range start> <range end> <plz> <description>"
	exit 1
	fi
