What are you using to manage your backups? We are setting up a Linux box
right now for a friend, will probably use rsync with a cron to back up

You can use rsync to back up Windows. You just need to use Cygwin.

Yes, I certainly want to do this:

use chroot = false
strict modes = false

[modulename]

path = /cygdrive/c/cygwin/var/rsync_dump
comment = Rsync storage area
read only = false



Instead of "Backup HK PC"


That is just like an INI file that a command reads to control its
processing.

What's the big deal.
