Re: Tape backups

hi,
I'm also using a self written rsync-overssh/ cp-hardlink combination,
to have several versions of server data on another machine.
I looked into rdiff-web, but too unstable,
bacula, backup-pc, mondo all too much features/dependencies so I  
never got them into production use.
But I know of others using them, or amanda, arkaia scale systems.

just my two cents.
