For backing up and restoring trivial data, especially user home directories, Deja dup is (indeed) a good alternative. The restore problem which I have/had from NAS to the (external) usb disk is a permission problem, which I noticed too with other rsync programs and the command-line rsync.
I share the usb disk (documents and pictures) with Windows 7 (dual boot Ubuntu and Windows). In case of a hard problem of the Linux OS, I prefer to reinstall Ubuntu and restore from NAS the user home directory. For an image of the entire linux file-system use a more specific program. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/929139 Title: Cannot restore backup from NAS using Deja Dup To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/deja-dup/+bug/929139/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
