Re: [ilugd] Faster way to take backup?
Hi I would like to share the following backup script?being used by me. Works Fine. Just in case some one needs it. My /home is 40 GB abd?tar.gz file comes to 20 GB and takes about 1 hour 10 mins to create. My question is - Is there faster way to take the backup? [snip] echo - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - /root/logs/dailybackup.lo I use rdiff-backup, extremely easy to use and does an incremental backup and only copies what is new after the first backup, and also keeps screenshots of backup to go back to a previous state of data.

Re: [ilugd] linux.in status
Hi all, What I would propose/add to that is you guys could also think of having a federated service like planetplanet (http://www.planetplanet.org/) so that once a person has written something and you have the RSS feed, the content would be there automatically. Its a suggestion, would be interested what people think of it. -- Regards, Shirish Agarwal शिरीष अग्रवाल My quotes in this email licensed under CC 3.0 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/ http://flossexperiences.wordpress.com 065C 6D79 A68C E7EA 52B3 8D70 950D 53FB 729A 8B17 ___ ilugd mailinglist -- ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org/
