Yes, I've used it at home and at work and it always worked nicely. It has a server and a client part so you can back up locally and remotely, you can create backup schedules involving incremental backups and full backups (IIRC depending on time and on how much data has changed, all configurable). Besides hard disks, it can use tape drives and drive storage libraries and assists you in restores. You can limit the network traffic it uses and handle different file systems on different clients differently. Support through their mailing list was great. -- Debian testing amd64 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
