i've gone through the threads:
Recommendations for an OpenBSD-based Backup Solution
remote data backup
and am contemplating the ideas as they apply to my rather simple setup - 2
webservers (one does email as well). not too much changes on them and not a
lot of stuff on them either (under 5G combined including OpenBSD).
what i've done in the past is just scp the etc and a few other directories
that contain data with the intention of reinstalling OpenBSD and putting
those directories back in (if disaster strikes).
is this too simplistic and inefficient a solution?
should i be thinking of incremental backups say with dump?
does it make any sense to rsync the entire server drive?
