Thankyou.
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!
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.
