Backups... mumble, mumble, hmmm...
They're a real pain, ain't they?
I've been looking for ways to automate backing up my day-to-day bits-n-bobs...
Option 1: Duplicity looked promising but turned out to be too buggy to be usable.
Option 2 BoxBackup looks more promising - though this requires both a client and server daemon... and I've not yet got as far as setting this up in user-space. I'm over the hurdle that only bdb3 seems to be fully installed (though some components of bdb4 also seem to be installed too) - but am now wrestling with lack-lustre documentation for configuring the daemons.
