Ghost for Linux

An excellent backup tool for Linux.

Main features:

* Backs up your desktop environment (KDE, Gnome, etc.).

* Backs up system files. * Backs up the user profile.

* If the system is used as a server, it backs up the server data.

* Backs up all passwords. * Backs up changes you've made to the system. * Backs up your theme. * Backs up an entire existing user. * Allows you to copy your backups. If you have important files on your Linux system, we strongly recommend backing them up with this software.

Editor's Comment: This is definitely software that should be in every Linux distribution. You don't need to know any commands to back up an entire user. You can perform all kinds of copying with a single click from the graphical interface. It's as good as paid software in other operating systems, and it's both free and open source.
