Bareos Fork

I am not affiliated with either Bacula or Bareos, other than using them. I do not hold sympathies for any of those two. The current (as of now) paragraph describing the split between those two is neutral in my opinion, after being edited back and forth. Consider yourself warned as follows: Do not edit this paragraph without prior discussion. Any points shall be discussed in this paragraph, as with the rest of wikipedia. --Roeme (talk) 20:39, 9 January 2014 (UTC)


BackupPC uses checksums

The following statement may not be true for BackupPC, if rsync and --ignore-times are used... By default, and as is case for all other Open Source backup software, Bacula's Differential and Incremental backups are based on system time stamps. Meonkeys (talk) 09:35, 11 August 2010 (UTC)

Founder of Bacula project Kern Sibbald has removed information about a fork

Please note that the founder of the Bacula project has removed information about an open source fork, see change history. I've reverted these changes. If an admin reads this: please moderate. Things can be discussed here. I think it is not appropriate, if an project founder removes information in this article that he dislikes. Gul.maikat (talk) 13:25, 6 May 2013 (UTC)

Some notes about the contents: Kern has removed all text about the open source fork Bareos. Bareos is a fork from Bacula, mainly started because of little progress in the Bacula community version. The information added to the Bacula article are about the fork itself (history) and new features added. This is useful information for Bacula users or readers being interested in Bacula. Given these information here, the reader can inform himself about the alternatives. Forking an open source project is quite usual and users can decide, which junction they follow. All information about the open source fork: http://www.bareos.org. Gul.maikat (talk) 13:49, 6 May 2013 (UTC)
