There are several options Kristine but which one you choose depends on what how technically experienced you are and what resources you have available (home network, crossover cable, external hard disk, etc). Maybe this link might help http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=....

Hi!
Nice article there!

What I've read you need to install rdiff-backup trough macports (or darwinports)? Does your installation work well?

Thanks in advance!

Hi Martin,

You don't need any external libraries, just librsync.

tbh since I wrote this article I've started using rsync for my backups. No particular reason really, I just think it's a simpler solution rather than having to mess about with building the software yourself. I use it to backup Linux and Windows (no reason it couldn't be use on Mac as well but I don't my Mac much these days).

I might try and post my new setup someday soon - still ironing out the kinks.

Adrian
