I used to use a backup script I found online that created .bz2 archives of each of your directories 1 level up from root. I found it handy because it would create a different archive for each user and was a nice balance between huge archives and too many archives. I lost my backup drive and haven't started backups again yet.
I've been looking at a few different solutions, but I think BackupPC looks best for multi-pc backups. It keeps single copies of redundant files (even across different clients). With my last setup I could only manage to keep a few old backups before I ran out of space. Does anyone have any experience with BackupPC, or suggestions on a better way to handle backups? Personally I only have ~4 hosts to backup, but I'd enjoy hearing about larger backup schemes as well. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "NLUG" group.
