Hi! I wonder if someone can come up with a solution to a little problem? In the 'bad old days' when I used Windows there was a little program called 'Rapid Backup' that I used to monitor my My Documents folder on a continuous basis. When a file was written to or modified within the folder (or any subfolder) then it was immediately copied by Rapid Backup to an 8Gb SD card which I kept permanently plugged into the PC for the purpose. It was a really good system, and I'm looking for similar software in Ubuntu (I'm running Natty).
To reiterate, all the software has to do is: a) Monitor the Documents folder (and all subfolders) on a continuous basis b) If a file or folder is created or modified, then copy the changes to another drive or folder of my choice (e.g. an SD card) I have yet to find anything that does this, or that does it without entailing a lot of scripting knowledge (at which I'm rather a newbie!). Any suggestions? Thanks! -- Beatrix E.
