copies over only the changes you've made to the source directory
and nothing more.<BR>You will be surprised when your huge source
is backed up in seconds (after the first time !!). <BR><BR>Whatever
changes you make to the source including adding, moving,
deleting, modifying files / directories etc, will have the same
effect to the destination. <BR><BR>Owner, group, time stamps,

directories keeping the files that were most recently modified on

you've declared exist or if they are empty and warns you
accordingly. <BR><BR>You wouldn't want your 500GB music

you are unsure of the effects on your data when executing an
rsync command try the dry-run option. luckyBackup will perform a
trial run that doesn't make any changes (and produces mostly the

misleading when using this.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT FACE="FreeSans, sans-serif"><B>Profiles</B><BR>You
don't have to create all tasks from scratch every time you start
luckyBackup.<br>You can save your preferences in a .profile file and

For some reason, you might not wish to use the luckybackup's <a href="#cronIt">schedule feautre</a>, to have some jobs scheduled.<br>
Instead you might want to manualy configure your system to execute luckybackup by using <b>cron</b> or <b>anacron</b> or a <b>bash script</b> or anything.<br><br>
If that is the case, it is recommended to use the <b>--silent</b> together with the<b> --skip-critical</b> option to run luckybackup in
<a href="#silentMode">silent mode</a>.<br><br>
Something else that should be taken into consideration is that for the silent mode to run, a graphical environment is needed.<br>
For that purpose the environmental variable <b>DISPLAY</b> should be defined.<br>

<FONT FACE="FreeSans, sans-serif"><br>Today's file managers like nautilus, konqueror or dolphin have the ability to directly support some remote filesystem protocols such as smb/cifs or nfs.<br>
You might be able to browse some remote places via your filebrowser but cannot find a way to declare those as source or destination.<br>
This does not necessarily mean that the remote place is locally mounted. You can distinguish such a situation by observing the full path address of the remote folder. If it does not start with <b>"/"</b> but with eg <b>smb://</b> then you are using the direct filesystem browser support.
<br><br>The solution to this issue is to mount the remote place locally.<br>
This involves, adding a line at the file <b>/etc/fstab</b> so that the remote directory can be visible under a specific mount point eg /media/my-Remote-Place/<br><br>
It is not the purpose of this document to describe every possible mount procedure. Please refer to your distro's documentation or support web pages for guidelines.

Use this mode, to define file(s), folder(s) or pattern(s) that will not be excluded by the transfer.<br><br>
<b>concept - theory</b>:<br>
As the list of files/directories to transfer is built,
luckybackup checks each name to be transferred against the list of include/exclude patterns in turn,
and the first matching pattern is acted on: <br>if it is an exclude pattern, then that file is<b> skipped</b>;
<br>if it is an include pattern then that filename is <b>not skipped</b>; <br>if no matching pattern is found, then the filename is <b>not skipped</b>.<br><br>
Note that, when using the "<b>recurse into directories</b>" option, every subcomponent of every path is visited from the top down,
so include/exclude patterns get applied recursively to each subcomponent's full name (e.g. <b>to include “/foo/bar/baz” the subcomponents “/foo” and “/foo/bar”
must not be excluded</b>). <br>
The exclude patterns actually short-circuit the directory traversal stage when luckybackup finds the files to send.
If a pattern excludes a particular parent directory, it can render a deeper include pattern ineffectual because luckybackup did not descend through that
excluded section of the hierarchy. This is particularly important when using a trailing ‘*’ rule. For instance, this <b>won't work</b>:<br><br>
include: /some/path/this-file-will-not-be-found <br>
include: /file-is-included <br>
exclude: * <br><br>
This fails because the parent directory “some” is excluded by the ‘*’ rule, so luckybackup never visits any of the files in the “some” or “some/path” directories.
One solution is to ask for all directories in the hierarchy to be included by using a single rule: “<b>include: */</b>”, and perhaps use the <b>--prune-empty-dirs</b> option.<br>
This technique is used at the <a href="#OperationAdvancedOnlyIncludeMode">only include mode</a>.
Another solution is to add specific include rules for all the parent dirs that need to be visited. For instance, this set of rules <b>works</b> fine: <br><br>
include: /some/ <br>
include: /some/path/ <br>
include: /some/path/this-file-is-found<br>
include: /file-also-included <br>
include: *<br>

public keys that are permitted for logging in. When the user logs
in, the <B>ssh</B> program tells the server which key pair it
would like to use for authentication. The client proves that it
has access to the private key and the server checks that the

If one or more profiles or tasks contain specific language characters (eg Greek, Cyrillic etc) then it is possible for a cronjob regarding these specific profile(s) or task(s) to <b>NOT</b> execute correctly, leaving a process named "luckybackup" running with no results.<br>
This is due to cron locale settings and can be confirmed by running the command:
<br><FONT FACE="FreeSans, sans-serif"><FONT SIZE=2><B><SPAN STYLE="background: #99ccff">locale</b></span></font></font>
<br>
both directly at a terminal and via a cronjob. The ouptut of the terminal command will look normal (eg <i>LC_CTYPE="en_US.UTF-8"</i>) but the output of the cronjob will not (eg <i>LC_CTYPE="POSIX"</i>).<br><br>
<b>workaround</b>:<br>Create (if not already present) the file <b>/etc/environment </b>and add the following line
<br><FONT FACE="FreeSans, sans-serif"><FONT SIZE=2><B><SPAN STYLE="background: #99ccff">LANG=en_US.UTF-8</b></span></font></font><br>

As explained earlier, all profile, logs and snapshot data are stored inside the user's home directory, under <b>~/.luckyBackup/</b> <br>
It is essential to understand that all luckybackup automated restore procedures must make use of these data. Because of that importance, a backup of all task-related files is performed after each task finishes at the destination directory, under folder:<br>
<b>DESTINATION/.luckybackup-snaphots/PROFILENAME.profile/</b><br><br>
In case profile files, logs and snapshot data are lost for any reason from inside your home directory, you can always import them back by using the <a href="#MainProfileImport"><b>import profile</b></a> procedure and navigating to the task's destination under <b>.luckybackup-snaphots/</b>.
