Although this one Tars the backup. Personally, I use rsync to keep a 7 days rotating backup to a backup server, which I then mount as a read-only samba share for users in case they snuffed up something, so then don't have to pick up the phone and call me. rsync even does it encrypted through ssh. So.. I'm not sure what it can do better. Reading the FAQ and stuffs on hdup, i can't really see it's diff from rsync. Can anyone Enlighten me?
