I'm finally getting around to setting up a backup system for all the
various machines around my house. Any recommendations as to a good
package to use?
The backup server is Linux-based, and most of the clients are Linux
as well. The option to backup Mac OS and Windows would be nice, but
is not critical. The ability to deal intelligently with laptop
clients, on the other hand, is a sine qua non, as is a FOSS solution.
I'd like something that runs a bit faster than rsync, if possible.
Currently, I'm running manual rsyncs whenever I happen to remember
to do so. Ideally, I'd like to install the client on the various
machines and forget about it, other than having the server mail the
logs to me so I can make sure that everything is continuing to run
smoothly.
Bacula looks like it has a lot of moving parts. Has anybody played
with rdiff-backup?
Thanks,
Paul
