Cobian Backup is a multi-threaded program that can be used to schedule and backup your files and directories from their original location to other directories/drives in the same computer or other computer in your network. FTP backup is also supported in both directions (download and upload). Cobian Backup exists in two different versions: application and service. The program uses very few resources and can be running on the background on your system, checking your backup schedule and executing your backups when necessary. Cobian Backup is not an usual backup application: it only copies your files and folders in original or compressed mode to other estination, creating a security copy as a result. So Cobian Backup can be better described as a 'Scheduler for security copies'. Cobian Backup supports several methods of compression and strong encryption.

Cobian Backup Installation Guide

Cobian Backup is a multi-threaded program that can be used to schedule and backup your files and directories from their original location to other directories/drives in the same computer or other computer in your network.

After you have downloaded the installation kit, you will have to run it in order to start the installation.

When installing the program you should have ADMINISTRATOR rights on that system.

The first thing you'll have to do is choose your installation language. You can choose from over a dozen languages available such as: English, French, German, Spanish, Italian, Chinese, Finnish and so on. Click 'OK' to proceed to the step where you need to accept the conditions of the License Agreement in order to proceed. Tick to box and then press 'Next'.

 

 

 

 

In this stage of the installation process, you can choose the destination for the installed files of Cobian Backup. By default, they will be installed on your Windows partition in the Program Files directory. Click 'Next' to proceed.

 



Next, you will get to choose how the program will run after installation. It is recommendable that you allow it to run as a service, since it will start automatically with Windows and automate the backup process.

If you allow the program to use the 'Local System Account' (recommendable), any user may have access to it. A warning window may pop up in this case, but there's no problem if you're logged on with Administrator rights. Just click 'Yes' to continue the installation.

 

 

 

 

In case you wish to install it only for a certain user on your system, you will have to provide the user name/domain (logon) and password. After you click 'Next' you will have to wait a little bit for the setup to complete and then click 'Done' to run the program.

KTorrent - Kubuntu BiTorrent Client (Kubuntu)
July 10, 2008

Unlike Ubuntu which is packaged with Gnome, for the KDE desktop that comes with Kubuntu is a little bit harder to find native clients, or clients which fit good on your desktop. However, there are a couple of clients which are accesibile: KTorrent and qBittorrent. There is another client which fits with Kubuntu, but being available only as source package makes it to be appropriate for the advanced users. If you're OK with the source code compiling, then go ahead for FatRat, otherwise, stick to the already existing clients.

Using BitTorrent clients under Ubuntu - Azureus
(Ubuntu)Published: June 13, 2008

Although under Linux you won't find BitTorrent clients such as uTorrent and BitComet which are popular under Windows OS, or at least you can't run them under as native binaries, however you can find very good alternatives. Since I am going to write about Ubuntu clients, thus appropriate for the Gnome desktop environment, I am not going to mention the clients which are typical for KDE. Under Gnome there are some popular clients such as Deluge, Transmission, and Azureus. However, Deluge and Azureus have Windows builds, thus for some of you, these clients might not be a brand new thing.
