Backup3l

Backup3l: a data backup/restore tool

Back to main.

backup3l is a tool for generating, maintaining and restoring backups on a mountable file system (e. g. hard disk). The main design goals are low maintenance effort, efficiency, transparency and robustness. It features differential backups at multiple hierarchical levels and provides rollback functionality. backup3l is heavily based on backup2l by Gundolf Kiefer, and globally shares its look and feel.

Available for download:

backup3l-0.99.tar.gz: upstream source code -- should install on most unices
backup3l_0.99-2_i386.deb: debian binary package -- recommended for direct installation on a Debian system

Note: I built the binary Debian package to make the installation easy but I'm looking for a Debian developper to takeover the real Debian maintainership, ie, source package, bug reports, and so on.
