</div>Do you mean you want the backup machine to be essentially<br>
a copy of the main machine? Or do you mean you just want to<br>
store backup files on the backup machine?<br>

Samba or NFS??? No<br>
<br>
To do the first - maintain a copy of the first machine on the<br>
backup machine, use rsync and ssh for 'authentication' and<br>
data transmission.<br>
<br>
For the other, keeping backup files on the other machine,<br>
use dump(8) over the net to the files on the backup machine.<br>
