Hi, I'll just chime in for my favorite backup solution for my stuff at home: BackuPC [1]. You set up a dedicated box on your local network, and it backs up configured clients (Mac, Linux, Windows), whenever it finds them. I've got it tweaked a bit to also back up a few personal web sites that I sup

Mark- One option which works on any Linux/Unix machine (including OSX) is rsync with the --link-dest option. This does the same thing as Time Machine: it creates backups that hardlink to existing copies of files (if they exist) saving disk space on unchanged files. There are lots of instructi

I don't know how it compares to Time Machine but as far as Linux backup software goes I really like Bacula. You can backup to disk, tape, or tape libraries. Thomas On Friday 16 December 2011 13:06:02 you wrote: > Apologies to anyone who is not interested in this thread, but I'm curious > to k

Hi Joe, I think there'd certainly be significant interest. IIRC, the few of us who organized the last one--my god, was it three years ago?--figured we'd leave it to others to step up and drive the next gathering. That clearly never happened. I'm happy to get involved again though. I may even have

There would be interest from me, depending on where in New England and costs. Boston, for instance,might be a bit far from Binghamton NY and more expensive to stay at. However, if it were closer to the NY border Of course, if there is enough people that want Boston, I'd say go for it and I'll
