I've had good results with rsync on FreeBSD boxes - I chose rsync because the box is remote and it minimizes network traffic however I've had no problems with it. Then again my BackupPC server is also a FreeBSD box so that may help. The snapshot feature of ffs is worth exploring (see /usr/src/sys/ufs/ffs/README.snapshot on you nearest FreeBSD box).
