Backuppc - presented by Sean

Backups for mere mortals. Everyone that came to the meeting should be able to get backuppc working in a couple of hours. It is a relatively straight forward backup system designed for on disk backups. As of version 3.0 it is fully configured by it's web interface. It can backup with rsync, tar, or direct copy of smb shares for windows machines. For more information see http://backuppc.sourceforge.net.
