rdiff-backup (http://www.nongnu.org/rdiff-backup/) is an very interesting backup program: "The idea is to combine the best features of a mirror and an incremental backup." (from the website) I use it successfully on some servers since some month. rdiff-backup is included in SuSE 10.0 and 10.1. Greetings, Björn
