Re: [CentOS] question about backup regimens

I need to recommend some backup options for a web server running CentOS 4.1. The client prefers using a tape drive as their backup device and has access to safe offsite storage. I was thinking of system backups weekly and differential backups nightly but don't know what software to recommend for the differential b/u's. For full backups I can just schedule a tar and compress using cron.

Any recommendations would be appreciated.

Just to add my .02 to the mix, I've been using Arkeia software for a few years on several networks and I've been *Very* pleased. Easy setup, multi-server support and not too terribly costly.
