Can someone help me with instructions on how i can make this possible? And /or is it possible to set active directory on this machine and if possible how? Please help, i am not good enough on centos.
Backuppc is about as good as it gets for online backups. It is packaged in EPEL but you can find docs and mail list info at http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/. If you want tape backups, look at amanda or bacula.
And even if dated, this wiki doc is a good help for configuration under CentOS : http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/BackupPC
And this one helped me a lot to configure user authentication on Active Directory : http://tastycrepes.blogspot.com/2010/07/active-directory-and-backuppc.html
Hope this helps...
