Some Useful Linux Tools

Devry - Room ?
Doors open at 18:45, Meeting 19:00 - 21:45

We didn't have a big topic but had a number of things that we have come across that might be of interest to the group.

Every needed to backup your system whether it is a handful of files or a partition. We have a bunch of tools that will solve this problem. Some are at the system level, others are applications and still others come as a live iso. Both Gustin and Kin have their favourites.

Hi,

I have been using Linux Red Hat software for the last four years. I was a two tier member of CLUG for several years. I consider myself new to the Linux software and community. Currently I'm using Fedora Core 8 desktop on my main computer. I have benefited as a member of CLUG. People in this club have assisted me in using Linux platform for most of my needs.
