Project Summary

Backup Manager is a command line backup tool for GNU/Linux, designed to help you make daily archives of your file system. Written in bash and perl, it can make archives in lots of open formats (tar, gzip, bzip2, lzma, dar, zip) and provides lots of interesting features (such as network exports or CD/DVD automated-burning).

The program is designed to be as easy to use as possible and is popular with desktop users and sysadmins. The whole backup process is defined in one full-documented configuration file which needs no more than 5 minutes to tune for your needs. It just works.
