This is an excellent backup utility for new Linux user.
Apple's Time Machine is a great feature in their OS, and Linux has almost all of the required technology already built in to recreate it. This is a simple GUI to make it easy to use.
Time Machine, like many backup utilities, creates incremental backups of files which can be restored at a later date. It also supports limited restoration of files within applications that are specifically programmed to use Time Machine's functionality.

Scott,
Great find!
I have a question. FlyBack can reserve Posix-ACL?
