BackupPC is a high-performance, enterprise-grade system for backing up Linux, WinXX and MacOSX PCs and laptops to a server’s disk. BackupPC is highly configurable and easy to install and maintain.

The first thing to do is to install the CentOS testing repo, along with the yum-priorities plugin.

# cd /etc/yum.repos.d
# wget http://dev.centos.org/centos/5/CentOS-Testing.repo
# yum install yum-priorities

If you have RPMForge’s repo installed, you’ll want to make sure all the CentOS Base items are priority 1, RPMForge’s items priority 2, and CentOS testing repo is priority 3.

Install BackupPC

Next, install the BackupPC RPM, Apache, and mod_perl. All the Perl dependencies will be collected automatically.

# yum –enablerepo=c5-testing install backuppc httpd mod_perl
