What can be newer or not existent yesterday, but has the same filename?
Something that one changed with an editor? Would not be better to use
a version contro system?

Pardon my ignorance and lack of deeper knowledge regarding the matter, but
since when is XFS not even considered for such uses?

Hi,
I found it, there exist glastree which is available from ports.
Nice small "poor man's" backup as the author qualifies,
though makes incremental backup through hard links:
# if yesterday does not exist or today is newer, copy the file
# else hard link the file to yesterday
Hey,

Hi,
I remind there was an incremental backup which I used to run in cron,
doing good job of making daily, weekly and monthly backups of deltas.
I could not find the name of this, it was available from packages as far as I

A fundamental element missing from the 1st mail is on which hardware should
run your software-defined NAS and for which use.
I exclude you are talking about several nodes, on which you can run Ceph or
GlusterFS filesystems.

FreeBSD has a better support for HWRaid cards than OpenBSD.

Hi,
I'll be playing around with DragonflyBSD Hammer2 (and multiple offsite
backups) for a home NAS over the next few weeks. I'll probably do a
presentation about the experience at the Montreal BSD user group
afterwards. It does not require as many ressources as ZFS or BTRFS, but
offers many

I'm running a small home NAS on OpenBSD, in a very similar configuration
as your intended configuration, right down to the rsync backup scripts.
It's worked very well so far, though I've only had it in place for a bit
over a year.
I chose OpenBSD over FreeBSD due to being far more comfortable
