[Bobs-devel] information request and a patch

[Giuseppe S. <epp...@us...>]

hi bobs developers,
I was looking for a free (as in speech) backup system and found your
program. My requests are client/server architecture, backup on disk,
connect via rsync/ssh, client operability via browser, store on crypted
file systems, store of only diff.

Basically, what I need is to create repository where to store backups of
different machines. Every machine should have its own crypted volume on
the backup server.

My "client" machines are behind a firewall and a NAT system, so every
backup/restore and every communication should start from the client.

The question is: is bobs for me?

I am compiling and installing bobs on a Debian/powerpc machine and I
only found a problem in the configure script that is actually looking
for 'httpd' as web server, while here I have apache-ssl. I just created
a patch in order to make configure test for http, apache, apache-ssl.

Thanks,
Giuseppe
