mlbackup is a backup script written in bash and uses rsync 3. It is built specially for Mac OS X (Server) and takes care of many of the Mac's special needs. It knows about many file that can be left out in a backup to speed things up and save space. mlbackup is intended for Disk-to-Disk backups. It is possible to pull backups from a remote host using rsync over ssh transport. You need to setup ssh host-key authentication if you want to automate this.

Super efficient tool.
Don't let the "no GUI" statement stand in your way.
It's pretty easy to use, at least for local backup.
Give it a try, it well worth it.
Better than Time Machine.
Vielen Dank Pepi !

The problem has been fixed! Please download again!
Sorry for the inconvenience!
