Bareos Overview

What is Bareos?

"Bareos is a fork of the open source project Bacula version 5.2. In 2010 the Bacula community developer Marco van Wieringen started to collect rejected or neglected community contributions in his own branch. This branch was later on the base of Bareos and since then was enriched by a lot of new features." [Bareos has kept track of the features of Opensource Bacula as well as incorporating many features that Bacula Systems rejected - most notably the ability to _easily_ backup "mobile" clients across the Internet, rather than fixed clients in the local LAN/WAN] Original author of Bacula and its documentation is Kern Sibbald. We thank Kern and all contributors to Bacula and it’s documentation. We maintain a list of contributors to Bacula (until the time we’ve started the fork) and Bareos in our AUTHORS file.
