I just built a package called backuppc for the testing CentOS repo. It
requires a dedicated backup server that you run it on, and it can backup
Linux/Unix/Mac machines via rsync or tar and Windows machines via samba.
The RPMs are just the start and it is a complicated setup but it is a
good solution for backups:
