Noticed today that Win7 has a rather nice easy to use system for 
automated backups.

Does anyone know of something similar for Ubuntu?
I want to backup my /home and also the entire contents of a 2TB storage 
drive to another machine on the LAN.

Searching the repositories brings tons of backup apps but I dont fancy 
installing and uninstalling for hours till I find one that works..
I know clever people can write scripts and cron jobs to do it all, but I 
was kinda hoping for something more my skill level ( point-n-click..)

What do you all use for automated backups?

cheers
