This would not be at my house. The corporate offices are in downtown Raleigh and my office is in North Raleigh. They do daily incremental tape backups, but they want a 'live' site where they can send the whole backup file in addition to the tape systems. When I lived in Alabama I had a similar situation in that my home office was in Nashville. They sent backups to us via a VPN, but the files were MUCH smaller. The thing that is really the sticking point is the file size. If it wasn't a 16GB file this wouldn't be a problem. They want me to hold the file because of the legal and security issues of someone else having the file. Like William said, I want to fully automate this process to happen unattended, at night.
