BAR

BAR is an open source backup archiver program, which can be used to make automated backups of all your Linux systems, at once. It supports the following compression algorithms: zlib, lzma, xdelta3 and bzip2; and the gcrypt algorithms for encryption.

BAR creates encrypted and compressed archives that can be uploaded directly to a FTP/SFTP or SCP server, or even stored externally on a CD, DVD or Blu-Ray disc.

What is new in this release:

• Fixed writing CD/DVD/BD: do not write an empty last medium
• Improved database index
• Fixed parsing CD/DVD/BD/device specifier: last character was missing
• Fixed logging of skipped own files

Requirements:

• PTHREADs library
• zlib
• bzip2
• LZMA Utils
• xdelta library
• libssh2
• Libgcrypt
• GnuTLS
• ftplib
• cdio library
• long long datatype (because of large files)
