We recently moved our primary backup machine to another location, and have overhauled a lot of our network infrastructure. This meant a lot of work updating the Bacula configurations on those machines. I’ve been unhappy with Bacula for some time, so I replaced it with BackupPC.

It has been *0* days since the last ‘rm -rf *’
Sometimes running Bacula is a real pain. It’s too much infrastructure for someone who doesn’t use tape backups (we just use a big RAID store). But today it saved me.
It all began when I accidentally copied /home/tyler/bin on my laptop to another workstation’s /bin. I have a lot of little scripts and doodads for my personal use in /home/tyler/bin, but none of them are named for real executables in /bin. So I think, “No big deal, just manually remove those scripts from /bin and no harm done.”
