Hi Xavi,

You are indeed correct, I developed the code on a RH machine.

However you can easily start PersonalBackup by cd'in into your install
folder
and then run './personalbackupd &'

In the next couple of days I will release a major update of the
personalbackup code.
A lot has been changed already...
You can have a look at
http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/personalbackup/personalbackup/CHANGES

And I am indeed planning to include some init scripts for the different
linux distro's in this next release.
But I need some time to figure it out myself ;)

Any help is gratefully appreciated :)

Have Fun !
