I want to back up a modest home system -- about 120GB storage, about
70GB currently in use onto a (brand new) external 300GB USB hard drive.
This should be done in a systematic way so that a modest number of old
(incremental ?) backups are available.
There are a number of applications available to do this, in particular:
amanda
backuppc
bacula
These are all intended for backup from a client to a server. Is there
any reason for the client and the server not to be the same machine? Is
this overkill -- will a little script with rsync or whatever do the job?
???
There's also
dump
but this seems to be intended mostly for backup to tape. Is this
impression of dump correct?
???
Thanks - jon
