Looked at it as a part of my thesis about a year and half ago. Not bad at all :)

That looks really cool and helpful. Been thinking of changing how I do back ups around here and at client's office :)

At this point we have used it for almost 4 years now under linux and we are so happy with it that we quit using Veritas Backup Executive 9 which we have several licenses for. The main reason for looking at open source software while having purchased licenses for a commercial product was that with the licenses we had we were limited in what we could backup and how we could perform the backups unless we shelled out for more licenses and options. As a result we were in a situation were we were not backing up all of our important data because we did not want to give any more money for software that we were not very happy with. With bacula all of these restrictions have been lifted, free technical support is significantly better but we do not have the fancy GUI to do backups (yet).

Right now my backups consist of a bunch of old .bat files being called into action by using the Schedule Tasks tool in the Windows Control Panel. I did take a look at Veritas some 2-3 years ago, and it seemed good, but never really went with it due to budget.

Just one???? As a hardcore C++ hacker, it would HAVE to be Boost[^]. And then Antlr[^], 'cause my job has entailed writing several parsers.

[Stuart Dootson]

I third that!

[Stuart Dootson]

That's so much of a given that I never even thought of it...
