Or "rsnapshot", which is very lightweight and works very well. If you
have security concerns, you can also use "rssh" woith it.

I find it very useful to rsnapshot to an NFS server, which my users
can then access with their normal privileges to recover files without
my having to load tapes or install backup clients for them.
