Perfect file system backup

I am thinking of a script / program that can run in the background, and try to back up or synchronize a given file system path to a mirrored location (possibly located on an external / separate storage device).

This should apply to Windows, but it can also be used on Linux.

  • Differential / incremental backups are a bonus.
  • Backing up Windows system status is also a bonus.
  • Maintaining origin without metadata is essential. (unlike version control)
  • Searching by file date or activity can be interesting (e.g. version control)
  • Backup storage should be easy to view and take up little space.
  • Deleted files must be available for recovery within a certain period of time.
  • Backing up Windows is tedious and bloated and limited.
  • Tar-gzipping is not available.
  • User interaction during backup must be non-existent.

Duplicity is free and creates encrypted, incremental, compressed off-site backups. This is a linux application, but you can run it in cygwin or a small virtual machine.

I wrote a perl script that runs it through cronjob to backup several very large directories on DSL, and it works fine.
