I maintain a BackupPC system for our small museum, backing up about 10 computers, mostly Windows. BPC is version 3.3.1, running on Centos 7. I just upgraded to Centos 7 earlier this year and got everything working again ok. The one Mac I backup (mine) was just upgraded to 10.12 Sierra and I can

I run backuppc on about 15 computers and one networked Buffalo drive in a small museum. I've had it working well for about a year on an old computer running Centos 5.6 despite not knowing a great deal about Linux and networking, just the IT guy by default. The clients are mostly Windows XP, some

I'm looking at BackupPC and other options for a network-wide backup system in the museum where I work. We have about 10 Windows computers, one OS X, one web server running CENTOS 5.5, and an NAS (and may be adding another). Note that my Linux knowledge is still limited but growing as I look at m
