# The sysutils/backuppc port

## backuppc-3.3.2p3 – remote backup software system

## Description

    BackupPC is a high-performance, enterprise-grade system for backing
    up Linux, WinXX, and MacOS PCs and laptops to a server's disk.
    BackupPC is highly configurable and easy to install and maintain.

    Given the ever decreasing cost of disks and raid systems, it is now
    practical and cost effective to backup a large number of machines onto
    a server's local disk or network storage. This is what BackupPC does.
    For some sites, this might be the complete backup solution. For other
    sites, additional permanent archives could be created by periodically
    backing up the server to tape.  A variety of Open Source systems are
    available for doing backup to tape.

    BackupPC is written in Perl and extracts backup data via rsync, or tar
    over ssh/rsh/nfs.  It is robust, reliable, well documented and freely
    available as Open Source on SourceForge.
