Backuppc (http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/) will backup a number of
hosts, compressing all files and hardlinking all duplicates (whether
from different hosts or different backup runs) to reduce the storage
needed and permit keeping a longer history on line. It also provides a
nice web interface for browsing, restoring, and archiving to tape. The
tape archive part is manual and kind of an afterthought but the rest is
completely automatic and some users have devised ways to use external
disks for the archive or do partition level copies to an external disk
for offsite storage.
Backuppc looks like to much for my problem. But somebody proposed just
using dump for this. To my shame I must confess I never used dump so
I'll be doing some man page reading now.
I'm not sure I understand what you mean by 'too much'. Backuppc is not
difficult to set up and is fully automatic except for the tape part
after you get it working. And as far as I know, it is the only thing
that can do an rsync update of an uncompressed target directly against
its own highly compressed storage archive.
