Thanks, but what about weekly full backups? Would that swamp our remote
512mbps connections?
Our big issue here is retention - we have to keep backed up files
indefinitely, can backuppc maintain a continually growing catalog of
indefintely retained files? Of course, we would probably need to install a
64-bit database server....

ditto. rsync will only transfer the changes, even on "full" backups.

Probably good advice, but I've never tried it. Hopefully I'll have time
to experiment soon.
