NAME

       backup-manager - An easy to use backup tool for your Linux box.

SYNOPSIS

	 backup-manager [options]

DESCRIPTION

       Backup Manager is an easy-to-use tool for generating archives.

       It is designed with simplicity in mind for those who don't want an obfuscated tool for making tarballs.

       There  are  different  methods  for  building  archives: tarballs, incremental tarballs, mysql dumps, svn dump. You can also write your own
       method with a generic method that will execute a command and will archive its output.

       Every times you run Backup Manager, you can upload archives thanks to a couple of upload methods: through FTP, SSH or even with RSYNC.

       It's also possible to export your archives to removable media like CDR or DVD.

CONFIGURATION FILES

       Backup Manager's behavior is defined in configuration files. You can use different configuration files at the same time.  The default  con-
       figuration file is `/etc/backup-manager.conf'.

       An  example  should  have  been	provided  with	the  program,  most  of  the time it's installed in `/usr/share/backup-manager/backup-man-
       ager.conf.tpl'.

       If you want exhaustive details about how to  write  your  own  configuration  files,  please  refer  to	the  Backup  Manager  User  Guide:
       http://www.backup-manager.org/documentation/user-guide/
