<div dir="ltr"><div>Hey Paul,</div><div><br></div><div>I use borgbackup[0] to do incremental, site to site backups. I've found it very easy to use and setup.

tend to be large, in the tens of gigabytes) sitting on some server A. <br>
<br>
I have a LAN connection (maybe gigabit, maybe 100MBit) available and<br>
another server B in a different building. I want to regularly transfer<br>
the collection of files from server A to server B each evening. <br>
<br>
Maybe the filesystem on server A is NTFS, but this is a soft<br>
requirement that I would try to work around if I could. <br>
<br>
What FLOSS tools would be best for this use case and why? <br>
If you know of good solutions that would play with NTFS, that is a<br>
bonus. (rsync is not in that category, especially if Server A has to<br>
run Windows.) But even if we soften the NTFS requirement, I am not<br>
sure whether rsync is still the best solution here.<br>
