Hi,
Does anyone know of some good file system backup scripts or utilities??
(I don't mean like tar or cpio.. read on..)
Specifically I am looking for some way to backup remote systems
(probably using rsync over ssh is the best?) but I don't simply want a
mirrored copy..
I want to have a seperate directory created each day with the backed up
files in.. Also I want files that have not changed to be symlinked to
the previous version of the file so that I don't need ten times the disk
space of the original source on the backup system and don't have to
transfer the entire file set over the network to the backup system only
the changed files..
This to me would be a very efficent way to have a backup system that has
the ability to have an archive history but doen not need masses of
storage space..
Thanks for any thoughts..
