dProjects is a really simple centralized web and rsync based version control system for small groups. The clients can initiate the file movements from the web interface.

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 very simple file compressor written in Perl. Compresses dirs to self-extractable exe. Uses UHARC and RAR utilities.

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.

gdown.pl is a Perl script that enables file downloads from Google Drive using a public shareable link. It bypasses the confirmation prompt shown for large files and automates the download process via the command line. This tool is especially useful for automated scripts, server setups, or CLI-only environments where GUI download is not feasible.

A perl script to join files splitted with the "hacha" program.

hardlinkpl finds duplicate files and hardlinks them, especially but not only on Cyrus mail spools. The memory footprint is bearable low, making it possible to search huge file systems of several hundred gigabytes. Inspired by hardlinkpy.

Remote backup tools with Backup generation management, save disk space, filesystem transparent operation based on rsync protocol.

A perl daemon loosely based on iWatch, used to create a "timemachine" lookalike backup with Dirvish. iWatch2 is based on iNotify. The daemon can monitor (and exclude) various sets of directories - defined in an XML file - and calls a command or script after a preset time passed (eg, starts a Dirvish backup after 1 hour). Of course not limited to execute Dirvish commands.

katarina is a simple backup system based on rsync, providing guaranteed retention periods, customisable retentions cycles, de-duplication by server...

kebap is the long-awaited Perl IDE. It currently uses nedit as text- and macro-engine and ships with a wx GUI. It consists of a tree-view based file-manager for the code repositories of a project. A plug-in API allows extending kebap in perl.

Minimalistic Backup AGent is a very simple tool that runs commands specified in its configuration file to create backups. It also performs rotation of old backups as specifies in the configuration file. It's meant to be run as a cron job to create chunks of backups for further processing (i.g. with rsync).

mdbackup is written in perl and basically goes off and connects to a bunch of remote servers (defined in a file called mdtab) via ssh or a smb mount, rsyncs the data to a location on your local zpool and then snapshots the deepest parent zfs filesystem. Another script renames snaps to preserve them as monthlies or annuals and another script purges the remainder of snaps based on a retention policy defined in that severs configuration file, normally 21 nighties, 12 monthly and 7 annuals. It all runs from cronies. It does lots of nice logging and error checking and has nice health check scripts which can be used to integrate this with nagios. it's reasonably mature and stable, I rewrote if from bash to perl a year ago, but in concept it's been running g for 5 years ago, I started it using solaris express developers edition, zfs v10. I have 4 servers running mdbackup and I manage it all using subversion. As for releasing it into the wild I'm happy do do that, but there are

midget is a small smb-share based backup script intended for use in unattended environments where finding a person to entrust with gory details of filesystem hierarchy and all the dirty details of creating backups is next to impossible.
