Backer-upper

Backerupper is an easy-to-use software for backing up selected directories over a local network. The program is primarily designed for backing up personal data. The best part is, it doesn't have to be installed! You can simply run it from the directory where you extracted the archive. However, if you prefer to install it, the installation process is straightforward.

To install Backerupper, open a console and type in 'su' to become root, then enter the password when prompted. Then, navigate to the directory containing the program's files and type './install.sh' to install the program files. Once the installation process is complete, any user can conveniently run the program by typing 'backer' in the console.

When you close the program's main window, Backerupper continues to run in the background with an icon in the system tray that enables easy access to its functions. Additionally, the most recent release, which fixes a number of bugs relating to error messages when clicking on controls with no profiles created, is a significant improvement to the software.

Overall, Backerupper is an excellent program for backing up personal data, and it proves to be incredibly helpful for those seeking a backup solution that is both easy-to-use and reliable.
