Backup your Linux desktop with Simple Backup

There are tons of possible backup solutions for the Linux desktop (and/or server). I have covered a number of possible solutions here on Ghacks. One of my favorite (and the one I use most often) is Luckybackup (see my article “Luckybackup: Linux backup made easy“), but that doesn’t mean there aren’t plenty of really good solutions. One of these solutions (and one that really lives up to its name) is Simple Backup (or sbackup). This backup tool offers very similar features to other solid backup options: local backups, remote backups via SSH or FTP, scheduled backups, include/exclude, and restore.

Simple Backup works to make the backup process simple. In this article I am going to show you how to install and use this handy Linux backup tool.
