Hi list!

I'm in need of a backup tool and an advice would be helpful because I need some special functionality.

I want to make backups from my laptop to a cardreader (pcmcia), making daily full and hourly incremental backups *if the card is plugged in* (which might not be the case for as long as two days).

Additionally I need some kind of encryption. The key could reside on my home partition which is encrypted itself and maybe pam-mount + luks is a solution but I'd like to hear some opinions on that topic.

If no one comes up with a better solution, I think two cronjobs with tar, gpg and find will do it, don't you think? The alternative would be rdiff-backup with some kind of encrypted and possibly compressed file system.

Thanks in advance!
