GPT fdisk is a disk partitioning tool loosely modeled on Linux fdisk, but used for modifying GUID Partition Table (GPT) disks. The related FixParts utility fixes some common problems on Master Boot Record (MBR) disks.

DAR is a command-line backup and archiving tool that uses selective compression (not compressing already compressed files), strong encryption, may split an archive in different files of given size and provides on-fly hashing, supports differential backup with or without binary delta, ftp and sftp protocols to remote cloud storage Archive internal's catalog, allows very quick restoration even a single file from a huge, eventually sliced, compressed, encrypted archive eventually located on a remote cloud storage, by only reading/fetching the necessary data to perform the operation. Dar saves *all* UNIX inode types, takes care of hard links, sparse files as well as Extended Attributes (MacOS X file forks, Linux ACL, SELinux tags, user attributes) and some Filesystem Specific Attributes (Linux ext2/3/4, Mac OS X HFS+) more details at: http://dar.linux.free.fr/doc/Features.html

Easy encrypted backups over the Internet (a graphical user interface for Box Backup by Ben Summers and contributors)

Detox is a utility designed to clean up filenames. It replaces non-standard characters, such as spaces, with standard equivalents.

'finddouble' application searches into a directory and all its sub directories. If it finds several times the same file, a warning message is displayed, but no other action is taken. It's main use is to help you optimize you disk usage.

Basic Backup is a simple customizable shell script providing system admins an easy way to get basic system files backed up. Use from the moment you startup a new system and archive daily changes through bbackup. Allows you to specify which directories o

CMage provides the ability to create an image of a filesystem on an IDE/SATA device and apply the image to a second hard drive of either IDE or SATA with a smaller, equal, or larger device size. CMage is run from a linux based liveCD on the terminal.

dumpnet is a collection of bash scripts that allows you to backup multiple servers simultaneously. You can do incremental file system dumps with tar, dump and rsync, backup databases and much more. AIDE can also easily be integrated.

pam_mount is a Pluggable Authentication Module that can mount volumes for a user session (login). Supports mounting local filesystems of any kind the normal mount utility supports, with extra code to better support CIFS, FUSE, various crypto, and more.

PDBS. Sistema capaz de realizar backups (full e incrementales) de manera segura, economica y confiable. PDBS puede realizar backups de servidores remotos de manera desatendida sin necesidad de hacer configuraciones en servidores remotos, y sin necesidad d

A FreeBSD console utility that finds, lists and possibly removes unreferenced packages. It lets the user choose which packages to remove and which ones to keep. It maintains a keep-list file, so previously kept packages will be skipped automatically.

RKV allows the user to backup and restore whatever he wants in a very flexible way. The actual backup and restore procedures are supplied by the user. RKV packages and executes them, so it's a kind of framework. Written in shell.

Utilizes common unix utilities to provide a simple backup solution. Like Apple's Time Machine, sbak uses hard-links to minimize disk usage. Reduces data transfer by using compressed rsync transfers. Web interface and subscription service coming soon.
