If you don't need tape copies, I recommend backuppc: http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/ It uses a clever scheme of compression and linking that will store about 8x what you'd expect, keeping it online with a nice web interface to browse and restore. If you use amanda, the version included in fedora should be fine. Neither of these will do bare-metal restores of windows clients, but can save data files via samba - and with backuppc you have the option of using rsync. -- Les Mikesell lesmikesell@xxxxxxxxx
