Luckibackup is a GUI frontend to the infamous rsync command line backup tool. Luckibackup is available as a package in almost all modern Linux distributions its very easy to setup and can save you a lot of time especially if you have to manage a number of your Workplace Desktop Office Linux based computers. Luckibackup is an absolute must have program for Linux Desktop start-up users. If you're migrating from Microsoft Windows realm and you're used to BackupPC, Luckibackup is probably the defacto Linux BackupPC substitute. The sad news for Linux GNOME Desktop users is luckibackup is written in QT and it using it will load up a bit your notebook. It is not installed by default so once a new Linux Desktop is installed you will have to install it manually on Debian and Ubuntu based Linux-es to install Luckibackup apt-get it. debian:~# apt-get install --yes luckibackup ... 1 / 2 Walking in Light with Christ - Faith, Computing, Diary Articles & tips and tricks on GNU/Linux, FreeBSD, Windows, mobile phone articles, religious related texts http://www.pc-freak.net/blog On Fedora and CentOS Linux install LuckiBackup via yum rpm package manager [root@centos :~]# yum -y install luckibackup . Luckibackup is also ported for OpenSuSE Slackware, Gentoo, Mandriva and ArchLinux. In 2009 Luckibackup won the prize of Sourceforge Community Choice Awards for "best new project". luckyBackup copies over only the changes you've made to the source directory and nothing more. You will be surprised when your huge source is backed up in seconds (after the first backup). Whatever changes you make to the source including adding, moving, deleting, modifying files / directories etc, will have the same effect to the destination. Owner, group, time stamps, links and permissions of files are preserved (unless stated otherwise). Luckibackup creates different multiple backup "snapshots".Each snapshot is an image of the source data that refers to a specific date-time. Easy rollback to any of the snapshots is possible. Besides that luckibackup support Sync (just like rsync) od any directories keeping the files that were most recently modified on both of them. Useful if you modify files on more than one PCs (using a flash-drive and don't want to bother remembering what did you use last. Luckibackup is capable of excluding certain files or directories from backups - Exclude any file, folder or pattern from backup transfer. After each operation a logfile is created in your home folder. You can have a look at it any time you want. luckyBackup can run in command line if you wish not to use the gui, but you have to first create the profile that is going to be executed. Type "luckybackup --help" at a terminal to see usage and supported options. There is also TrayNotification - Visual feedback at the tray area informs you about what is going on. 2 / 2 Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org).

  • Easy Slackware
    1 Создание легкой системы на базе Slackware I - Введение Slackware пользуется заслуженной популярностью как классический linux дистрибутив, и поговорка "кто знает Red Hat тот знает только Red Hat, кто знает Slackware тот знает linux" несмотря на явный снобизм поклонников "бога Патре­ га" все же имеет под собой основания. Одним из преимуществ Slackware является возможность простого создания на ее основе практически любой системы, в том числе быстрой и легкой десктопной, о чем далее и пойдет речь. Есть дис­ трибутивы, клоны Slackware, созданные именно с этой целью, типа Аbsolute, но все же лучше создавать систему под себя, с максимальным учетом именно своих потребностей, и Slackware пожалуй как никакой другой дистрибутив подходит именно для этой цели. Легкость и быстрота системы определяется выбором WM (DM) , набором программ и оптимизацией программ и системы в целом. Первое исключает KDE, Gnome, даже новые версии XFCЕ, остается разве что LXDE, но набор программ в нем совершенно не устраивает. Оптимизация наиболее часто используемых про­ грамм и нескольких базовых системных пакетов осуществляется их сборкой из сорцов компилятором, оптимизированным именно под Ваш комп, причем каж­ дая программа конфигурируется исходя из Ваших потребностей к ее возможно­ стям. Оптимизация системы в целом осуществляется ее настройкой согласно спе­ цифическим требованиям к десктопу. Такой подход был выбран по банальной причине, возиться с gentoo нет ни­ какого желания, комп все таки создан для того чтобы им пользоваться, а не для компиляции программ, в тоже время у каждого есть минимальный набор из не­ большого количества наиболее часто используемых программ, на которые стоит потратить некоторое, не такое уж большое, время, чтобы довести их до ума. Кро­ ме того, такой подход позволяет иметь самые свежие версии наиболее часто ис­ пользуемых программ.

  • Gestión De Respaldos En Debian
    Gestión de respaldos en Debian Los ordenadores en algún momento fallan o errores humanos causan daños al sistema y los datos. Las operaciones de copia de seguridad y recuperación son una parte esencial de la administración del sistema para que el mismo se recupere después de un fallo y siga funcionando correctamente. Para ello, existen tres puntos clave a tener en cuenta para determina la política del respaldo. 1. Saber qué debemos respaldar. 2. Saber cómo respaldar y recuperar en caso de fallo. 3. Evaluación de riesgos y costos involucrados. Debemos respaldar los siguientes archivos: Archivos de datos directamente creados por el usuario: datos en "~/". Archivos de datos creados por las aplicaciones utilizadas: datos en "/var/", exceptuando "/var/cache/", "/var/run/", y "/var/tmp/". Archivos de configuración del sistema: datos en “/etc/”. Softwares locales: datos en “/usr/local/” o “/opt/”. Información de instalación del sistema: un archivo de texto sin formato con los pasos claves (particiones, etc). Demostración del conjunto de datos: confirmado por las operaciones de recuperación experimentales realizadas con antelación. Al realizar el respaldo, debemos tener en cuenta los siguientes puntos: El almacenamiento seguro de datos: protección sobre los fallos de sistema y la sobreescritura. Realizar copias de seguridad frecuentes: de forma programada. La copia de seguridad debe ser redundante: duplicación de datos (data mirroring). El proceso debe ser fácil: en lo posible que requiera solo un comando para la copia de seguridad. Debemos realizar una evaluación del proceso a utilizar: Valor de los datos en caso de pérdidas. Los recursos necesarios para la copia de seguridad: usuario, hardware y software.

Backups may be retained in articles across a desktop PC (Windows 7) and an iPad multiple computers or storage devices to protect data from (iOS). The model focuses on mirroring the duplicates of risks such as hard disk failure, computer theft or even the backups across different OS with the focus on the accidental deletion. There are many software applications speed and cost efficiency. which are designed for synchronizing backups but few of them are able to work across different operating systems and platforms. The undertaken policies and methods in these applications make the common synchronizing process time- II. LITERATURE REVIEW consuming. Moreover it is not easy to manage large-sized backups across relatively slow networks like the Internet. In There are some open source file synchronizer this research we present a systematic model which is able to applications which synchronize the files by a renaming or a moving process, such as Unison1, DirSync Pro2, synchronize large sized backups, in terms of mirroring the 3 4 name and quantity of the files, across different operating LuckyBackup, rsync . One of the common advantages of systems. Time and cost efficiency are two main factors in this these applications is their compatibility with different OSs.

  • Einfachste Datensicherung Mit Lucky Backup (Linux) Quelle
    Einfachste Datensicherung mit Lucky Backup (Linux) Quelle: http://www.der-lifehacker.de/2010/12/einfachste-datensicherung-mit-lucky-backup-linux/ Zum Arbeitsalltag jedes Anwenders gehört ein Backup. Für Mac und Windows werden ja inzwischen zahlreiche Lösungen angeboten, die diese Aufgabe bequem im Hintergrund ohne Zutun des Anwenders erledigen. Leider machen sich die Entwickler aber nur selten die Mühe, diese Funktionen dann auch auf Linux zu portieren. So müssen sich Linux-Nutzer selbst nach Alternativen und Backup-Programmen umsehen. Eine Software, die die Sicherung der eigenen Dateien besonders einfach machen will, ist Lucky Backup. Installation und Start (http://luckybackup.sourceforge.net/) Lucky Backup ist in vielen Distributionen bereits in den Paketen enthalten. Wenn Sie allerdings die aktuellste Version nutzen wollen, besuchen Sie die Seite des Projekts und laden sich die Datei für Ihr System herunter. Unter Ubuntu fragt Sie Ihr Browser, ob die Datei mit dem Software-Center geöffnet werden soll. Bestätigen Sie diese Eingabe. Der Paketmanager weist Sie darauf hin, dass eine ältere Version zu seinem Umfang gehört. Ignorieren Sie diesen Hinweis und klicken Sie auf «Installieren». Wie gewohnt müssen Sie dann Ihr Systemkennwort eintragen, womit die Einrichtung des Programms beginnt. Ist dieser Vorgang erfolgreich abgeschlossen, starten Sie die Software über «Anwendungen, Zubehör». Einrichtung und Aufbau Das Programm wird in zahlreichen Sprachen angeboten. Um auf die deutsche Sprache zu wechseln, klicken Sie einmal auf «Settings» und anschließend auf «Language». Die Sprache der Oberfläche wechselt unmittelbar. Damit blicken Sie auf eine sehr einfach aufgebaute Oberfläche. Lucky Backup basiert auf dem mächtigen Tool «rsync», das vollständig über die Kommandozeile bedient werden kann.
