Introduction

Hddbackup is a simple backup solution. It is not intended to compete with advanced solutions like Backuppc or Bacula. The software is implemented as a perl script using GNU tar. It is based on cdbkup, but all the CD-specific parts have been removed. New features have been added as well as various bugs fixed.

Features

  • Full and (multi-level) differential backups
  • Compression (supports GNU gzip, GNU bzip2, and xz)
  • Encryption (using GPG)
  • Remote backups (via ssh)
