Robin,Have you considered using an svn locally for versioning and then rsyncing that remoteley?
This way you could create a repository readable by both root and the "trusted" user. The trusted user could then rsync everything off to the remote server.
One issue that comes to my mind is, what will happen with permissions? I reckon the file permissions will stay the same, however the owner might change when restoring. (Or am i wrong?)

One for your nightly backups, and the other (stored remotely) for monthly emergency recovery. http://www.jwz.org/doc/backups.html _______________________________________________ Pauldotcom mailing list [email protected] http://mail.pauldotcom.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pauldotcom Main Web Site: http://pauldotcom.com
