ccollect backups data from local or remote hosts to your local harddisk.
You can retriev the latest version of ccollect at [0].
doc/REQUIREMENTS shows dependencies of ccollect.
doc/INSTALL describes how to install it.
doc/configuration describes how to configure it.
doc/configuration.example is a log of how I created a configuration.
ccollect was inspired by rsnapshot [1], which had some problems:
- configuration parameters had to be TAB seperated
- you could not specify exclude lists differently for every source
- no parallel execution
- I didn't like the configuration at all, so I used the cconfig style [2].
