+1 rsnapshot is simple and very effective, once you understand that it's meant to be run on the server rather than the client (the docs aren't sufficiently explicit about this and as it will also work the other way you can find yourself with a correct but very slow backup process if you don't pick up on it). poc -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
