'tbku 1.115 is released and available at: http://www.tundraware.com/Software/tbku/
What Is 'tbku'? =============== 'tbku' is a utility for producing "tarball" backups of some- or all of your files. It is useful both for producing incremental backups or for systemwide images or "snapshots". The tool can be run either from the command line or, more typically, as a cron job to automate system backup tasks. 'tbku' can also be used to capture system images which can then later be used to (re)provision other machines. The distribution includes explanations of how to "image" systems from a tarball produced with 'tbku', using FreeBSD and SUSE Linux as examples. 'tbku' uses standard utilities common on Unix-like systems, like 'tar', 'sed', and 'uname'. It uses no other special or custom tools. For this reason, it is highly portable across many variants of these systems. 'tbku' was originally developed as a backup tool for FreeBSD servers. Since then, it has been updated to also work with SUSE Linux, both servers and desktops. 'tbku' should work with little- or no modification on any other Unix-like system. For example, 'tbku' will run without modification (other than default locations) in a cywgin environment under MS-Windows. There is no charge for the use of 'tbku', but please take a moment to read the licensing terms.
