The “world-wide-known” back up and recovery software (open source) - Amanda - has recently upgraded the program to version 2.5. The features improved in this version go from: cleaning the code, to easy installation/configuration, also security measures and optimization of resources used.

One of the best features of this software is the ability to work with four different Operative Systems: Linux, Unix, Mac-OS X and Microsoft, at the same time, which is great for some big networks.

Amanda also has a wiki and forums, so if you’re willing to contribute don’t forget to visit often.
