About

REOBack (pronounced "ray-o-back") is a backup solution designed for Linux users and system administrators. It is designed to be simple to set up, and easy to use. It is great as a quick solution for those who procrastinate about backups. It supports automatic full/incremental backups of files you define, remote backups via NFS or FTP, as well as auto deletion of old backups. See the latest README for more information.

Requirements

REOBack was written and tested using RedHat Linux 7.1/7.2. Since it was written in Perl and uses standard UNIX tar and gzip, I'm positive that it will work on just about any flavor of UNIX. But just in case, here's the official requirements:

  • Linux or any flavor of UNIX (provided, the following are available:)
  • Perl v.5.6.1
  • Net::FTP Perl Module (optional, needed only if doing FTP backups)
  • Tar
  • Gzip

REOBack has been reported to run on RedHat Linux, Free BSD, Mac OS X, and AIX. If you install REOBack on any OS other than what's listed above, and it works, let us know.

Changes

Changes in version 1.0 Release 3:

  • Fixed problem when backing up "/" (root dir).
  • Fixed "rename" code to use "move" to work across filesystems.
  • Fixed the directory permissions problem when restoring backups.
  • Changed tar parameters from "cpfz" to "-cpzf" for compatability with
    other flavors of UNIX i.e. AIX.
  • Check if Net::FTP is installed when doing an FTP remote backup,
    * Fixes bug 463642
  • Automatically create directories from settings.conf if they do not
    exist. Parent directories are created if necessary.
    * First half of fix for bug 482380
  • Better error checking and reporting.
    * Second half of fix for bug 482380
  • Removes large (>2GB) archives, even if Perl does not have large file
    support. This relies on the tar command having large file support
    enabled, but both the file system and the tar command have to have
    large file support to create a file larger than 2GB.
    * Fixes bug 521843
  • Skip removing comments for FTP passwords. REOBack will now treat
    everything after 'ftppasswd = ' as a password, except for leading and
    trailing whitespace. For example, for the line
    'ftppasswd = my##password ', REOBack will extract 'my##password'
    as the FTP password.
    * Fixes bug 506178
  • Correctly handle the case where there are no files to skip.
  • Fixed a bug with checking for the last modification time for symbolic
    links.
  • Perl regular expressions (wild cards) for Skip: directives. For
    example, to skip all files and directories in your home directory that
    start with a dot, you can use:

    Skip: /home/myself/\..*

    Wondering what '\..*' does? The leading backslash, '/', tells REOBack
    (actually Perl) to treat the next dot, '.', as a literal dot. The
    third dot tells Perl to match any character, and the asterisk, '*',
    tells Perl to perform the match zero or more times.
  • Suppress "Removing leading `/'" message from tar.
  • Prints correct backup type.
  • Prints version each time it is run.
  • Creates fewer temporary files.
  • General code streamlining and cleanup.
