I'm running MacOS X 10.0.4 with the builtin Perl 5.6 and am having just one minor problem using REOback.
The backup process creates the list of files to be backed up, and successfully compresses the *list*, but it doesn't actually archive any of the files on the list.
I'd already edited reoback.pl to remove the "-T" flag in the subroutine where that flag gets supplied to tar (processFiles, maybe?), because the version of tar running on OS X does not support the -T flag.
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
Ah, nevermind. I fixed it myself by getting a non-broken version of tar from GNU. GNU tar 1.13 compiles just fine and REOback worked like a charm the first time after that.

I'm glad it worked out for you. Thanks for posting your OS and tar version. I will make a note that it is also tested on that platform.
