Backup Tool for ubuntu

Asked by Lilgansta in Ubuntu, Linux Administration, Backup & Restore Software

Tags: ubuntu, any backup tool

Hi experts,

I have to backup a few directories on a Ubuntu machine.  I bought an external usb2 750G hd formatted as fat32. When I plug in the drive it is recognize automatically and is ready to use.  Now I need a backup tool that can do incrementals backups on it.  The backups need to be performed daily and I just don't know what to use nor how to configure it.  I  would appreciated it if someone could recommend such a tool to do the task and explain in detail on how to install/configure/schedule it.  The maximum points will be allowed since this task is urgent.  Understand that the machine is located in a closet with no screen so I will install the tool remotely through remote desktop(VNC).  The whole VNC/remote desktop part is already configured and I use it often to modify shares and other things on the machine so that part needs no explanation...Start Free Trial
