Показать описание
To celebrate World Backup Day I am taking a look at a backup utility that I have not used yet, and that is Rustic. This is a command line tool that will run password protected snapshots saved to the location of your choice. We are starting with basic commands and in Part 2, we will build a configuration file so that the process can be scripted.
