Offsite backup went into full production last Sunday and I have permission to share. I just need to tidy it up a little (ie, add explanations etc) and I will post a link with details to the list. I'm on holidays now, so probably won't get to it until after Christmas. Most of the though has gone into creating the hourly or daily 'snapshots' using hardlinks to save diskspace. It does *not* just do a simply copy/backup of the SME server. I'm sure it could be adapted to use Unison or whatever, rather than rsync as the transport protocol.
