Backup and Restore Ubuntu System using Sbackup
,----[ Quote ]
| SBackup is a simple backup solution intended for desktop use. It
| can backup any subset of files and directories. Exclusions can be
| defined by regular expressions. A maximum individual file size limit
| can be defined. Backups may be saved to any local and remote
| directories that are supported by gnome-vfs. There is a Gnome GUI
| interface for configuration and restore.

Will bad backups doom Windows Home Server?
,----[ Quote ]
| Microsoft just announced it's working on Windows Home Server, which
| among other features, will automatically back up files on all PCs in
| the home. But if the product uses the same kind of brain-dead backup
| built into Windows Vista, this is a product that will be dead on arrival.
|
| The backup tool built into Windows Vista may be the worst utility
| every packed into an operating system. It doesn't allow you to back
| up individual files, folders or even file types. Instead, you have to
| back up every single file and folder of broad generic types.
|
| For example, if you want to back up a single picture, you have to back
| up every single graphic of every graphic file type on your entire PC,
| including all the graphics that Vista itself uses. This means you can
| be forced to back up hundreds of gigabytes of files if you only want
| to back up a few family photos.
