Linux Anybody?


Recommended Posts

i was looking for an automated solution where the backup is done regularly.

How regular, and how much are you backing-up?

 

Try Nitix if you want a hot-swap solution

Or browse around sourceforge for a cool script. (It was tempting to search one for the post)

 

Or you may, BASH!:

1! do 'dd' or cp -r, tar, or

2! just update a pre backed-up copy with use of touch, diff, "logs sniff", >-cat-grep, ...Oh yes, and

3! svn, csv, bzr (what else???)

4! or just image copy

 

all triggered using the clock or a coffee-with-mug maker HA!

hehe...wonder if the gods went through this? :wacko:

hmmm...cron jobs might be a good solution.

 

btw, am using ubuntu feisty fawn. :)

 

 

Yeah, once you have the script that does the backup just create a cron job for it and your good to go.

Found a tutorial on how to setup the backups here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=240326

 

I haven't tested it as I don't have an Ubuntu installation yet. Still planning to test Gutsy one of these days.
