rsync.net is run by the johncompanies guy; my experiences with johncompanies have been excelent, and they've been around for a while. > I'd like to also hear about alternatives I should look at, even if they're > not exactly the same, the idea is remote backup using the rsync protocol > (I've already looked at S3 itself and s3rsync.com, would like to hear about > more similar services). well, if you are using a lot of space, outsourcing storage is kinda pricy right now, no matter who you go with. It's hard to beat the cost per gigabyte of a 16 bay supermicro running zfs filled with 1.5TB disks. but, if you don't need that much storage, then yeah, outsourcing usually makes sense. -- Luke S.
