i'm using p9p venti on linux, and it's been a total breeze to configure and administer. the utility of hist and yesterday in my opinion far outweigh the couple megabytes of memory that venti needs to be running all the time (i run it on my desktop machine, not a dedicated file server). i'm curious to know what backup system you're using that is simpler than venti. my interest in plan 9, inferno, octopus, &c stems mainly from my using venti for backups and finding it to be far better that anything unix had to offer. so it you really do have a backup system simpler and more robust than venti, i'd love to try it out -- i apologize in advance if gmail has in anyway mutilated this messege. stay beautiful!
