by the way rsnapshot is a more sophisticated tool to back up your root |
| 4 |
file system. it is based on rsync, but the bright idea behind is that it |
| 5 |
creates a history (hourly, daily, weekly, monthly) with copying the hole |
| 6 |
system only one time. |

Maybe this is what you preferably want. |

Kind regards, |
