There's no Linux version of Mozy, I'm afraid... and I believe they use a
proprietary protocol, so unless they release their source code (or someone
reverse engineers the protocol), it'll be up to them to develop a Linux
version...

I'm with you though, for your average end user (and for that matter, for
technical folks too), it's a great, painless backup tool.

There's a professional version (that offers increased functionality for
business clients) at mozypro.com as well. I can't speak about this though, I
haven't used it...

been working very well for me at work. They have a Mac version and a Windows
version.

I am an extremely happy customer of rsync.net.  They have a variety of
storage packages, good prices, awesome support, and provide a variety of
connection options (DAV, rsync, subversion etc.).  Currently I have
scripts that backup windows and linux machines via rsync.

Cheers,
