Hello all

I am running Ubuntu 6.1 and want to be able to replicate my "Home" directory onto a NAS as a way of backing up.

A single snapshot is not a backup since it will replicate corrupted
data, file deletions etc etc.

This can either be a BU program or a SIMPLE (!) script

The aim would be to run the prog/script and end up with a direct replica on the NAS of my Home directory - preferably in both directions, but if not then from Ubuntu -> NAS would be fine

I would recommend the use of rsnapshot, rdiff-backup or backuppc for
multiple staged incremental backups.

I currently use rsnapshot for backing up 16 remote servers over my
2Mbit DSL.

Should I actually be backing up more than my data anyway?  If so what?

Whatever you need to recover from "bare metal."

Cheers,
Andy
