BackupNetClone
Features
BackupNetClone's main features include:
- encrypted transfers (using rsync through SSH tunnel)
- absolutely minimal transfer, yet still a complete backup
- snapshot backup--multiple full backups at one destination, yet each
backup uses only as much storage as an incremental backup would use
- optimized for any data--works with many small files, or a few large
files, or a mix
- small requirements--storage server only needs Linux with working rsync,
telnet, and bash shell and a few small utilities (awk, grep, sed, etc)
- multi-platform--PCs to be backed up (referred to as the "backup
clients") can be Linux/UNIX (rsync daemon),
Windows (cwRsync server), MAC OS (rsync daemon)
- easy to troubleshoot--keeps extensive logs about all activity; written
in industry-standard bash script
- minimal maintenance--automatically rotates log files, sends email status
