[TriLUG] backups onto CD

[Nathan Conrad]

Hi,

I have decided to start backing up my files (It is about
time....). Because I already have a CD-R, this is my perfered medium
onto which I will write data.

I require a backup program that will perform incremental backup. I am
used to using Retrospect for MacOS, and would like a similar feature
set/ease of use. A GUI is not necessary, somtimes config files are
nice.... It looks like most of the programs use tar as a back-end. Do
they support multiple sessions on a CD?

So, what is out there?

Quickly looking, I found cdbkup (http://cdbkup.sourceforge.net/). It
seems to fit my needs. Does anyone know anything about this package?
