No, I'm using OpenSSH now, and IIRC I also used it for the initial rdiff dump. Before OpenSSH, I had dropbear running on the box, but it performed very bad. I'm not using nfs nor smb. > >I wonder whether I should simply revert to "rsnapshot" or "star" for > >doing backups > main advantage of rdiff-backup is it`s really small sized increments. > if you can live with bigger increments, then other solutions _may_ be > better. With "star" the increments can be as small as one wants them to be. There is a difference in backup strategy though, and with "star" one generally takes the more traditional approach of different dump levels (monthly, weekly, daily, hourly, etc.). -- Felix E.
