Hi! Give a try to Veritas BackupExec 8.5. It has a so-called "agent" for UNIXes and Linux as well. I use this in many locations from small (2 servers) to bigger (20+ servers) by my customers, as well as for my own LAN. I have even used it with a Travan IDE tape drive (HP species) and it worked fine, although it works at its best with DAT and DLT libraries.
Good luck! Caracal - G.
