Time-Drive a step in the right way

Well Time-Drive was first discoverd by me on highlight of Time Drive. I read through the artical and I was interested at first sight. Time-Drive is a wrapper for Duplicity.

The key elements that attracted me to the project was the fact that it was simple, clean and everthing was there what I needed, maby good solid replacement for the slbackup configuration.

This was my first opinion, this hasn’t changed but since Time-Drive is still in development I’m still using the old configuration. but in the near futher I will change to Time-Drive and duplicity.

For me the key of the program is you can schedule it with cron, well the program configures it more or less for you. The console program reads in the config file you created with the GUI,  so you can move it to a server without X. What is also nice is an easy way to restore from backup.

I have tried to support the starting development process of Time-Drive by testing and helping to solve bugs. The creator of Time-Drive will put it as soon as possible on launchpad.
