bkp is a simple command line backup tool, written in perl, under GPL license; it allows you to make backup of your data.

A shell script that backup linux files and send to a windows share. It uses tar, sed and smbclient.

It can help you to backup files easily, you just need to input a short command to backup or reply files.

This Symantec/Veritas NetBackUp (NBU) daemon allows a client to run a backup (or other command) on a given NBU server.

Braincracks acts like a continuous snapshoting filesystem / versioning filesystem. It monitors folders for files changes (each X seconds) and saves a copy of files when they change. It is made of 3 Bourne Shell scripts (1 bin, 1 daemon, 1 service).

btrbk is a snapshotting and backup tool tailored for Btrfs that automates consistent, incremental backups using btrfs send/receive. It creates atomic snapshots of subvolumes, then efficiently transfers only changed blocks to local or remote targets over SSH. A declarative configuration describes sources, targets, and retention policies (hourly/daily/weekly/monthly), and btrbk enforces pruning so backup stores don’t grow without bound. The tool supports hierarchical setups—many subvolumes to many destinations—and can throttle, pre/post-hook, and verify operations for reliability. Because it uses native Btrfs primitives, restores are fast and space-efficient, and replicas can be mounted instantly for inspection. Clear logging and dry-run modes make it safe to adopt in production while giving operators visibility into every snapshot and transfer.

cPanel Backup is a set of automated scripts for triggering full backups of your website through cPanel and retrieving the backup files using FTP.

Canburn is simple program for testing directory structure in order to burning it to CD-ROM. It can be used to check files before burning them to CD.

A Nagios plugin for monitoring BackupPC.

This bash-script checks that backups are not too old, that the last backup had no errors, that all shares and subshares exist in the data root directory, etc. This plugin and the "check_backuppc" check sligtly different things, and in different was. You can use both... Tested on: BackupPC 3.2.1 / Ubuntu 12.04 Should work in most similar systems i think. Let me know otherwise (create a ticket!). Installation is easy: Just put the check-script inyour nagios server, and the other (included) script somewhere so that the check-script can find it (e.g. in the $PATH, or edit the check script for a custom location).

Bash script to clone the package state of a debian system, or, in other words, the list of currently installed packages, to another system(s). It is fairly simple, but serves it's purpose very well.

CMage provides the ability to create an image of a filesystem on an IDE/SATA device and apply the image to a second hard drive of either IDE or SATA with a smaller, equal, or larger device size. CMage is run from a linux based liveCD on the terminal.

commTee is a system which is used to store informations received from mobile clients (Phone, PND, PDA, ...). The system is able to work with about 10k nodes. Used protocols and technologies: UDP, TCP/IP, Sockets, Java, Hibernate, OSGI

A configuration backup utility. Confstore scans your system for all recognised configuration files and then stores them in a simple archive. confstore can also restore configuration from these archives.

cptree.sh is a simple bash script to clone a directory. It is like an updating 'cp' that erases non existing files.

Cync is a small but powerful synchronization tool for GNU/Linux systems. It finds differences in file timestamps, and executes the necessary action. It is possible to write CSL-files for performing more synchronization tasks in one command.

Latest version will always be at https://github.com/daimh/daisync/ ### An rsync-based backup tool, enterprise-level features. Created in http://brainarray.mbni.med.umich.edu, and used in many groups, MBNI itself uses it to backup 150T data from one Windows file server and multiple Linux file servers daily, and each backup takes about 5 hours. Please stay tuned, our next innovation is to use those ditched LTO tapes to knit a sweater probably.

A shell script to automate backup of del.icio.us bookmark.

Delta-backup is a PERL wrapper of the RSYNC command for cross system backup with differential archiving. This tool should be considered as a proof of concept rather than a tool suitable for production use.

A differential compresor (or a binary diff) for huge files. Unlike other tools, e.g. xdelta3, it searches for matching data through the whole source file, even if it weights several gigabytes, while using much less memory (with default configuration approx 25x less than the size of the source file). Output files are not compressed, so you can use any compressor you like with great results. It is quite fast for very similar files (about the speed of hdd, however it reads input files twice) and not much worse on files with lots of differences.

DirSynch is a bidirectional directory synchronizing software. It helps you to discover the status of each file in both directories: if it's only in one of them, if it's newer in one than in the other, or if they are simply equal. It also support file content comparison using a hash function, although it's very time consuming. After letting you to choose which files do you want to synchronize, it performs the right operations to make both directories equal (or not, if you want it different). The program can create a backup of the files before overwriting them.

This project is for the Device Drivers and user-space tools for the <a href= http://www.centurion-cd.com/product-dischub.html>Centurion DiscHub.</a>. The device is a 100 CD+-RW/DVD+-RW/DVD-RAM drive with a robotic 100 Disc changer.

This project is used for restoring crashed OS(currently linux and windows) from backups of their root file systems. It contains diskless OS(debian-based) and some shell scripts to restore OS and bootloader.

Bash script for cdr/cdrw burning. Can burn data and audio, and use multisession. Can also rip to ogg vorbis.

django-dbbackup is a Django management command extension for backing up and restoring databases and media files. It supports multiple storage backends including local file systems, Amazon S3, and Dropbox. Ideal for automated backup strategies, it simplifies the integration of backup logic into Django projects.
