Hi people!
I wonder if someone can recommend the backup solution with the following
features:
1 - ability to store several backup sets (e.g. different filesystems)
2 - ability to completely restore a FS (down to each symlink etc. i.e.
completely reproduce the original system)
3 - ability to selectively restore specific files
Am I naive to hope for a single solution? If so, which programs are better
for each type of problem (2 and 3)?
Thanks in advance Genie
