Linux Rsync-based backup tools worth considering

Posted: 17 Mar 2014 01:28 AM PDT

One of the most overlooked aspects of computing is the sore, critical issue of keeping backups of personal data. Too many people ignore this, until it's too late, and then, all there's left to do is weep silently in front of a blank monitor. Whether it's negligence, innocent mistake, or a disk failure, the data is gone, forever.

Linux people have it somewhat easier. The separation of root and home helps, but there's also a plentitude of solid, robust backup tools available, most of them lurking in the official repositories, waiting for the bold and curious user to download and test them. In this article we look at a bunch Rsync-based frontends, all of which promise to take gentle care of your data.
